Stephanie Abwasi, from Blackpool, is waiting to find out when they can cross the border to Egypt.
A mother-of-four waiting with her family to cross the border into Egypt from Gaza has said "nowhere is safe".She recalled how they were forced to flee their home at night after Israel launched retaliatory air strikes following Hamas's attack on 7 October.Ms Abwasi said she hoped her family could cross the Egyptian border at Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip later on Monday.
She explained that she had moved from Blackpool with her husband, who has family in Gaza, in order to learn Arabic, which she says she still does not speak well. The Gaza Strip only has two other border crossings, both with Israel - Erez, a crossing for people in northern Gaza and Kerem Shalom, a solely commercial goods junction in southern Gaza. Both are now shut.
"We've experienced bombing and planes flying over us, buildings destroyed, all sorts of horrible things," she said.Ms Abwasi said her family had temporarily moved into a relative's flat in Khan Younis for a week, where 43 people were staying."I feel very sorry for the people of Gaza who are not able to leave and are stuck here," she said.
