Global Affairs Canada said 234 Canadians, permanent residents and their eligible family members have crossed from Gaza into Egypt Sunday.
The update came as the Rafah crossing reopened after a two-day closure, allowing foreign nationals to flee the war-torn territory.
Dalia Salim, a London, Ont. woman, said her 66-year-old father crossed the border Sunday with her uncle, who is a U.S. citizen.
