Israel hammers Gaza with airstrikes as Hamas’ atrocities revealed

Gaza #Gaza

Germany has so far evacuated from Israel students from 17 classes, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock told lawmakers Wednesday, after a moment of silence in Parliament to commemorate the victims of the Hamas attacks.

The children were evacuated by moving them on buses to neighboring Jordan, where they flew home from Amman or took flights through Reykjavik, Iceland, if direct flights to Germany were not available.

Lufthansa, the German airline, will also operate eight special flights on Thursday and Friday to evacuate German citizens who had to register with the country’s emergency list beforehand.

Around 5,000 Germans so far have registered to leave Israel and will be selected according to urgency, per a government spokesperson. More than 100,000 German citizens — many of them dual nationals — are presently staying in Israel.

“It is already clear that October 7, 2023, will be a turning point for Israel, probably the bloodiest day in the country’s history,“ Baerbock said, adding Israel’s security is a priority for Germany.
