'Once-in-a-lifetime chance': Gaza scholars await UK evacuation to pursue studies

Gaza scholars, including Mahmoud and Mohammed, are awaiting UK evacuation to pursue studies, with nine students receiving emails about potential evacuation. Despite the emotional turmoil of leaving their families amid ongoing conflict in Gaza, these Chevening scholars see this opportunity as a chance to make a difference in their community upon returning. The UK government's decision to facilitate these evacuations follows advocacy efforts for over 80 Palestinian students with offers from UK universities, providing hope for a brighter future amidst the turmoil in Gaza.
