In his quest for answers about his cousin, Elewa has contacted both the International Red Cross in Jerusalem and the Canadian Red Cross. "They told me to contact the Canadian Red Cross division." But neither the Canadian, nor the Jerusalem branch of the Red Cross have been able to find answers. It is also unknown how many people in Canada have filled out forms with the Canadian Red Cross' Restoring Family Links program, looking for missing loved ones in Gaza. "I've looked into your request and we won't be providing you the number you've requested," said a Canadian Red Cross spokesperson when asked how many Canadians are looking for people in Gaza.
