A group of Israeli citizens with dual nationality and also foreigners, most of them Americans, took advantage this morning of a window of opportunity created by the United States to escape the war. In Haifa there is an avalanche of people running and dragging suitcases.
They live in Israel and, for personal reasons (they have small children or suffer from an illness), they are afraid of staying in a territory at war, or, on the contrary, they were in the country to visit their family or on a trip. vacation. There are around 100 people trying to leave Israel this Monday and their destination is Cyprus. Others will then head to the United States.
In a chaotic setting, full of suitcases, toys, games and food, children begin to appear irritable and restless. They’ve been waiting a long time.
The operation to expel these citizens will be carried out via a cruise ship and is already about two hours late. It is only at this moment that people begin to make their way toward the entrance to the bridge, flanked by American flags, showing the way to the transportation that will take them to a place without war. No one knows the reason for the delay, but the truth is that people will have to pay for this trip.
Among the approximately 100 people is Martha, a five-month pregnant woman who had some contractions a few days ago. Accompanied by her two children, she explains to the TSF who, where he lives, “does not have a safe haven” against air attacks, is “afraid” and, therefore, decided to embark for Cyprus. Later he will try to return to Israel.
People were only allowed to travel with their children, husbands or wives. Everyone must have valid North American documents, animals are not allowed and they can only carry 22 kilos of luggage, something that seems crazy considering that this is a cruise with capacity for thousands of people and, in this case, only a few will board. a hundred.
