The returnees faced significant hardships imposed by the Israeli army on the crossing, reflecting the ongoing difficulties in the region.

As they arrived at the Nasser Medical Complex, reports highlighted the struggles that these individuals underwent during their travel back to Gaza. The Israeli authority has reportedly implemented strict restrictions and challenges at the border, making the already difficult journey even more burdensome for the returnees.

The emotional reactions noted upon arrival include a sense of relief and joy in reuniting with family and homeland, despite the struggles faced during their journey. This return is seen not just as a physical journey but as a significant moment in the broader context of Palestinian resilience and the desire for stability amidst ongoing conflict and uncertainty.
