They follow four others who arrived at the end of last month.
The evacuations are being planned by the NGO Children’s Right for Healthcare. It’s hoped 15 more children will be able to come here.
They’re taken through the Rafah checkpoint into Egypt – and then on to the Swiss Embassy in Cairo which is helping with logistics.
All the children are being accompanied by a parent or relative.
