Vietnamese Embassy in Israel advises community amid escalating conflicts
VOV.VN - The Vietnamese Embassy in Israel has recently issued a notice advising the Vietnamese community living, studying, and working in the Middle East nation to proactively implement security and safety measures amid the escalating security situation caused by tensions between Israel and Iran.
After the Iranian Embassy building complex in Syria was attacked on April 1, international media and governments of many countries expressed concerns regarding the risk of direct attacks between Iran and Israel.
The Israeli National Emergency Information Portal also sent safety instructions to people from 6:00 p.m. on April 11 to 6:00 p.m. on April 14.
Faced with this situation, the Vietnamese Embassy in Israel recommends that the community regularly monitor and stay updated on the situation via reputable local media and related safety and security applications to ensure absolute safety.
This is in addition to proactively taking necessary safety measures, strictly complying with local government regulations and instructions, limiting visits to crowded places, and regularly keeping in contact with the Embassy.
The Embassy of Vietnam in Israel has provided direct contacts and citizen protection hotlines for the community to contact in case of emergency, or if they need either support or information regarding citizen protection measures.
It also provides local government websites such as the National Emergency Information Portal and Home Front to offer people additional guidance when needed.
This comes after many countries have advised citizens to avoid traveling to Israel and Iran amid warnings regarding the risk of widespread conflict if Iran retaliates for the attack on their Embassy in Syria.
Meanwhile, Israeli authorities have intensified defence activities to prepare for future attacks from outside.
