US says American citizens to leave Gaza Wednesday

US President Joe Biden says he expects more US citizens to leave Gaza on Wednesday.

The US says it has around 400 American citizens along with their families - totaling around 1,000 people - stuck in Gaza.

It is estimated that around 100 US citizens live in the besieged enclave, and the majority of the 400 were visiting when the 7 October attack on Israel took place.
