Talks disolved. Egypt wanted to send aid with the retrieval of an estimated 600 Palestinian-Americans in Gaza. They were planning within a short window but Israel axed it to not allow aid.
If ANY of these people are allowed to leave (meaning 1 or more) by November 30th, this market resolves as YES.

Still unclear if it has only been American volunteers or Palestinian-American nationals. Other countries nationals did cross, but still unclear which ones.
This will LIKELY resolve as YES in the coming days. Even if these nationals weren't able to leave yesterday, it sounds like they will in the next few days.

I will also add this (published an hour ago from BBC): https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67292966
The children are on a list published by Gaza's border authority approved to leave the enclave on Thursday, along with some 500 other foreigners, including 400 Americans. Ms Sager does not appear to be on the list.
On Wednesday, more than 400 foreign passport holders and injured Gazans were allowed through the Rafah crossing for the first time since the war began.
The US state department has said that includes "a number of American citizens", though it declined to provide specifics, only adding that exits will "continue over the next several days".
The lack of clear information - as well as what critics say is a haphazard and often vague correspondence from government officials - has been stoking growing frustration among some Palestinian Americans as they, or their families, scramble to get out of Gaza.
It is very realistic to assume some of them are duel nationality people, but I am still waiting to confirm this.

Mkhaimar Abu Sada, 58, an associate professor of political science at Al-Azhar University in Gaza, was accompanying his two sons, both in their 20s, at the Rafah crossing on Thursday. He said they had American citizenship, but that he was not allowed to leave because he has only an American green card. His wife and three other children are not American and will stay behind as well.
Are his two sons sufficient?

As a reference.
Keep in mind, the mainstream media will go crazy to say one of these people are coming home or are safe in Egypt. I expect the resolution to come from any mainstream publication.
Careful yall, remember this question is for American-Palestinians, not just American NGOs. I'm reading and will be watching who crosses. Likely this is a YES but I am not rushing to a resolution.
"At least five NGO workers who have been confirmed as Americans are listed as approved to cross on Wednesday, but it remains to be seen how many of at least 400 American citizens the U.S. State Department says are stuck in Gaza will be able to cross in coming days. "
If any number of the 5 NGO workers are American-Palestinians then this will resolve YES.
A few lines below the above paragraph:
One American trapped in Gaza told CBS News she does not expect to cross yet.
"They started letting foreigners out today but it's not Americans because I guess we're not as important as we thought," Utah resident Susan Beseiso told CBS News on Wednesday.
