Russia continues to evacuate compatriots from the Gaza Strip, TASS reported. The Kremlin spokesman spokesman Dmitry Peskov assured that the work is going on every day. According to him, almost half of those who wanted to evacuate have already left the conflict zone.

Mr. Peskov mentioned that diplomats and rescuers are actively involved in the evacuation process. 

The evacuation of Russians from the Gaza Strip started on November 12, and over 500 individuals have already returned to Russia. The Russian Foreign Ministry, acknowledging a list of over a thousand people seeking evacuation, assures that all individuals on the list will be brought back home.

As we reported earlier,  the condition of the evacuees can be called normal, but they show signs of dehydration. The medical team was prepared for any situation, and the Russians have been given the necessary medication.
