Canadians in Gaza are still waiting to be allowed to leave the besieged Palestinian territory via a border crossing with Egypt as the Israel-Hamas war continues.

THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP-Hatem Ali Here is what we know about how Canada is supporting its citizens in Gaza:Four days after the war began on Oct. 7, government officials in Canada initially said 70 Canadians in Gaza had asked for consular help.
Global Affairs said Canada is "actively engaging authorities to include other affected Canadians and their families for future crossings."What is Canada doing to help citizens leave Gaza? Global Affairs has been providing Canadians with instructions on how to be prepared to leave on short notice, and what to expect as they exit the enclave via Rafah, the only exit point for those who wish to leave the Palestinian territory.
Very little information has been released by Canada or other governments on how those agreements are reached or who assembles the lists of foreign nationals allowed to leave Gaza before the General Authority for Border Crossings in Gaza publishes them online.
