US 'working around the clock' to help Americans leave Gaza: Sullivan
As time dwindles ahead of an anticipated Israeli ground invasion of Gaza, the U.S. is calling on fleeing citizens to head toward the southern border crossing to Egypt.
"We have been working around the clock. We have an entire dedicated team that is working on nothing but this: helping American citizens who are in Gaza be able to get safe passage through the border crossing to Egypt," Jake Sullivan told ABC "This Week" co-anchor Martha Raddatz on Sunday.
The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem on Sunday morning urged U.S. citizens trapped in the Gaza Strip to move to southern Gaza along the main highway, the Salah al-Din Street.
"Our goal is to ensure that every American who is in Gaza has safe passage out, and we will not rest until that happens," Sullivan said.
