Help for Canadians stranded in Israel, Gasa and the West Bank.

On social media, Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly stated planning is underway to assist them in the coming days using Canadian Forces aircraft.

She also says additional options are also coming for those who cannot reach the Tel Aviv airport.

It’s day five of fighting after a surprise attack was launched on Israel by Palestinian militant group Hamas.
