    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    A British consultant cardiologist based in Swansea has said he is being “handed a death sentence” after being forced to return to Gaza over the border from Egypt at the Rafah crossing on Wednesday.

    The approved list is drawn up by Egypt and Israel, and it is not clear why he and other British nationals had been excluded from travelling with the rest of their families.

    Geraint Davies, the independent MP for Swansea West, has been battling to get Sabra and his family out of Gaza for more than two weeks.

    I have been in touch with No 10, alongside the foreign secretary, James Cleverly, and Lord Ahmad [Middle East minister] directly.

    A UK foreign office spokesman said: “We’re working round the clock to ensure all British nationals in Gaza who want to leave are able to.

    “We remain in regular contact with British nationals in Gaza to provide them with the latest information, and UK teams are forward deployed to the border to receive anyone leaving”.
