Foreign Ministry calls on Czechs in Lebanon to leave the country

The Czech Foreign Ministry has advised Czech nationals in Lebanon to leave the country without delay in view of the worsening security situation. As border tensions between Israel and Hezbollah intensify, the security situation may deteriorate rapidly, especially in Shiite areas and areas of the Palestinian refugee camps of Ain al-Hilweh, Burj al-Barajneh, but also in other localities," the ministry said, adding that in the event of further escalation, the operation of Beirut airport cannot be guaranteed. It is advising Czechs to leave Lebanon while flights are still available.
