Evacuations of citizens from Lebanon continue amid growing hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah. Germany, Greece, Spain, and France have been among the countries evacuating their citizens, with military planes bringing them home and providing aid. The situation in Lebanon is described as tense, with reports of bombings and fear among civilians.
Israel has issued fresh evacuation orders for communities in southern Lebanon, possibly signaling a wider ground operation against Hezbollah. The Israeli military has warned people to leave Nabatieh and other communities north of the Litani River. The escalating conflict has raised fears of a wider regional war in the Middle East.
Turkey has also evacuated over 300 nationals from Lebanon, with reports of a bloodbath-like situation in Beirut. The Turkish Foreign Ministry has set up an emergency hotline for citizens to apply for evacuations, with a delegation deployed to oversee the process.
As tensions continue to rise in the region, more countries may opt to evacuate their citizens from Lebanon to ensure their safety. The situation remains fluid, with efforts underway to bring people out of the conflict zone.
