Russia has urged its citizens to leave Israel immediately, following the escalating military tensions with both Hezbollah and Iran.
Yesterday, Anatoly Viktorov, Moscow’s ambassador to Tel Aviv, recommended that Russian nationals depart Israel without delay.
In remarks to the Russian news agency TASS, Viktorov highlighted the worsening situation in the region and reiterated his advice against travelling to Israel. He noted that some airlines are still operating scheduled flights and encouraged Russian citizens to take advantage of this opportunity.
“We advise our citizens currently in Israel to seriously consider leaving the area,” Viktorov added.
