Over a dozen Bosnian citizens and their relatives are still in the Gaza Strip, more precisely near the Rafah border crossing. This area, in addition to being unlivable, is a target of military activities. Pročitaj više

Among the non-evacuees is the Hagag family. The son of BiH citizen Munira Hagag is currently in Italy. He says he is losing hope that his loved ones will leave the Gaza Strip and cross to safety.

“The situation in which my family lives could not be more difficult. We waited for help from the institution, but nothing… they just told us that they were working on it, gave us promises that they would manage to evacuate them and told us to be patient. In the end they informed us there is nothing I can do for my family. My family has lost hope and now they can't do anything, except wait for death…” Abdurahman Hagag told N1.

He explained that he tried to communicate with the BiH Embassy in Qatar, but that he did not receive any answers from any of the parties involved in the process.

“No one helped us, my people feel like hostages there. I'm tired of calling the authorities every day and empty promises. I'm just hearing that I should wait. I was in a state of shock when I heard they dropped my family's case. If something were to happen to my family, the people in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and in the embassies in Egypt and Israel will be responsible for their death,” Abdurahman Hagag said.

Most of the non-evacuated BiH citizens and their relatives are women and children. Bosnian embassiesin Cairo and Qatar say that they are doing everything to ensure that the evacuation process continues, but that at the moment there is no indication of when it will happen.
