China has urged its citizens to leave Israel amid heightened tensions over Israel’s war in Gaza and bombing of southern Lebanon.
A statement from the Chinese Embassy in Tel Aviv states that the situation on the Israeli-Lebanese border is “very tense, military clashes occur frequently, and the local security situation in Israel remains difficult, complex and volatile.”
Chinese nationals in Israel are requested to return to China or relocate to safe areas as soon as possible, according to an Embassy statement issued late yesterday.
The embassy reminds Chinese citizens in Israel to “pay close attention to the development of the situation and remain vigilant.”
Those who really need to stay in Israel should pay timely attention to local security advisories, insist on not going out unless necessary, avoid going to high-risk areas and sensitive areas such as the north, stay in touch and stay safe,” it was said in the announcement of the Embassy of China in Tel Aviv, AA writes.
