There are calls for safe passage out of the Rafah region, with medics from New Jersey reportedly among those seeking to leave. However, it is unclear if safe passage will be granted, as reports suggest that some of those seeking to exit are Hamas fighters, and there are conflicting views on whether they should be allowed to leave, with some parties calling for disarmament as a condition. The situation in Rafah has led to a significant displacement of people, with nearly 800,000 now displaced from the area.
