REUTERS/Mike Segar Acquire Licensing RightsMEXICO CITY, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Mexican and Ukrainian officials on Saturday separately urged Israel to open a humanitarian corridor to Gaza to let people out as both countries work to repatriate their citizens from the area. Ukrainian human rights ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets said Ukraine's foreign ministry sent a note of protest to Israel after Ukrainian citizens were not allowed to evacuate from Gaza on Saturday. "We do not understand why Ukrainian citizens are not allowed to evacuate, as well as other citizens of foreign countries," Lubinets said. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy condemned the attacks by Hamas on Israel, calling for world solidarity with Israel. On Thursday, the Mexican government said hundreds of its nationals were still waiting to get out of Israel.
