The best option is probably to revert that firewall policy.
Second, you might run your SSH server on port 443 and see whether
the firewall lets that pass.
Third, you could try Tor, which is an anonymity network with
censorship resistance, see:
https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#FirewallPorts
Tor provides a socks proxy, which you would need to configure for
use from Emacs/Gnus. Some pointers are given there:

Good luck
