A North Texas doctor who's been in Rafah since the start of the month can't leave. He was supposed to be back home on Tuesday.

Dr. Mahmoud Shabha went to the Gaza region to volunteer his medical expertise as civilian casualties continued to climb. He was supposed to return Monday.— the southern city of the Gaza region right on the border of Egypt, where more than a million people have sought refuge from Israel's war against the terrorist group Hamas.

The Palestinian civilian death toll, however, continues to climb as Israel moves through Gaza. That's why Dr. Mahmoud Sabha from Dallas traveled to the region to volunteer his medical expertise and bring supplies. "What so many people have told me is that they are just so sick and tired of this war. They would love for it to end," Sabha told WFAA on Tuesday from his dorm across the street from the hospital where he's volunteering.

Per ABC News, Sabha is one of more than 20 American aid workers trapped within Gaza's borders right now. Israel officials have told ABC News that any accredited aid worker can leave right now, but some on those missions say there's no guarantee for safe passage.
