Largest group of Canadians yet flees Gaza while others hope for their turn
RAFAH, EGYPT - NOVEMBER 12: A bus carrying Canadian nationals recently evacuated from the Gaza Strip prepare to depart the Rafah crossing on November 12, 2023 in Rafah, Egypt. The Rafah border crossing reopened today for the first time since Friday, allowing a group of foreign nationals and injured Palestinians to exit the Gaza Strip into Egypt. Aid also resumed entering Gaza, although NGOs have emphasized the amount being admitted is a small fraction of what is needed. The Rafah crossing is the only such access point not controlled by Israel, which remains at war with Hamas, the militant group that governs the Gaza Strip. (Photo by Ali Moustafa/Getty Images)

Britain's Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has described a planned march in London on Saturday -- Armistice Day, when Britain honours its war dead -- as "provocative and disrespectful" and suggested London's Metropolitan Police ban it. Police have said the march in support of Palestinians does not meet the legal threshold for requesting a government order to stop it going ahead.
