House Democrats Trump Administration is urging to allow children injured in Gaza to enter the US for emergency medical care during the Israel-Hamas War.
Letter to the state secretary on 25 August Marco RubioMore than 140 MPs asked for a step reversed recently to prevent all visitor visa approval for Gaza strip people, including children required to medical care.
The letter states, “This break will refuse children of medical care that they are in dire need. It is wrong to stop children who are trapped in the middle of this horrific struggle.”
“Furthermore, this decision ignores the fact that all the Palestinians have left Gaza for medical treatment or are already under the rigorous vet by the Israeli government to get medical treatment with family members, including an Israeli security approval, identity verification, and an assessment whether they are associated with Hamas,” this continues.

The State Department wrote in a social media post in recent times, “All visitor visa for Gaza’s persons is being prevented, while in recent times we perform a complete and intensive reviews of the processes and processes used to release a small number of temporary medical-human visas in recent times.”
