Trump embraces Biden effort to evacuate Palestinian children with cancer from Gaza

A rare joint effort launched by the Biden administration and embraced by the Trump White House brought two Palestinian children with cancer from Gaza to the U.S. for treatment this week, multiple sources tell NBC News.

They are among 240 Palestinian children with cancer who have been evacuated from Gaza since the war began so they can get chemotherapy, blood transfusions and other treatments impossible to obtain in the war zone.

But the resumption of fighting threatens to slow these evacuations, with at least six more children diagnosed with cancer waiting to be extricated from Gaza for desperately needed treatment.

On Wednesday, two Palestinian girls with cancer, 17-year-old Nesma and 12-year-old Leen, who asked that their last names not be disclosed for privacy reasons, finally made it to the U.S. treatment. But at least six other Palestinian children with cancer remain trapped in Gaza as fighting intensifies.

In a rare example of cooperation between members of the Biden and Trump administrations, officials from both have pushed their counterparts in Israel, Egypt, Jordan and other countries to help get the children and their parents or guardians security clearances so they can be evacuated for life-saving treatment.
