Eleven toddlers from Gaza are reuniting with their families after doctors evacuated them as premature newborns during blackouts at Shifa Hospital. The children returned Monday from Egypt through the Rafah crossing and arrived at Nasser Hospital. The evacuation happened in November 2023 after electricity cuts shut down incubators and put the babies in immediate danger. Doctors say staff wrapped them in blankets and kept them close for warmth. Parents describe joy and fear in the same breath. Some families still lack answers about other evacuated infants. The children came back to a Gaza devastated by war.
