'You cannot imagine how I felt when I heard my children were leaving Gaza'

A Belfast-born man whose wife and other family members were killed in Gaza has told BBC News NI of his happiness after learning that his children will leave the Palestinian territory.

Khalid El-Estal, 30, had appealed for help reuniting with his children after the loss of his family members.

His four-year-old son Ali and one-year-old daughter Sara are now included on an evacuation list to leave Gaza.

They are due to enter Egypt via the Rafah crossing in the next day.
