Now most of the Nepalis have left the bunker under the residential building and started living in the community bunker. Now the government is under pressure for rescue. However, there are few Nepalis who leave here immediately," he said. A Nepali in Israel has been taken to Egypt by land. According to the Nepali Embassy in Egypt, the Dean of Karnali Institute of Health Sciences Dr. Praneet Pokharel was rescued from Israel and taken to Egypt on Monday. For this, the Nepali Embassy in Israel and Egypt coordinated with the government of Israel and Egypt. 

 The Nepali ambassador to Egypt, Sushil Kumar Lamsal, reached the Eilat-Tawa crossing point in Israel and Egypt to receive Pokharel, who had come to Tel Aviv to study for a short time.

Ambassador Lamsal informed that Pokharel will be sent to Kathmandu on Tuesday from the international airport of the same city. This is the first rescue by the Nepal government from Israel. This has opened the way for us to facilitate the rescue of Nepalis coming from Israel,' said Ambassador Lamsal, 'whoever wants to rescue Nepali, we should be informed in advance.' 

Ambassador Lamsal said that the Egyptian and Jordanian governments have agreed to allow Nepalis who want to be rescued from Israel to enter by land. The Nepali Embassy in Egypt has also been given the responsibility of looking after the Jordanian affairs. It is possible for Nepalis in Israel to get entry through the borders of Jordan and Egypt. We have made all the arrangements," he said. "It is not possible to go directly to the border. First, Nepalis who want to leave Israel must give their full details to the government. We send the list with that details to the respective country. After getting permission from there, you have to go to the designated checkpoint.' 

Jordan's Sess Hussein Bridge and Wadi Arava border have been opened for foreign nationals leaving Israel. Most of them are entering Jordan through the Arawa crossing.
