Foreign Ministry calls on Czechs to leave Lebanon

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has called on Czech nationals who are still in Lebanon to leave the country without delay in view of the killing of Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of the Shiite militant group Hezbollah. There are currently 98 Czechs registered in the Drozd travel system in the Middle Eastern country.

The Czech Foreign Ministry advised Czechs to leave Lebanon in October last year after the escalation of tensions following Hamas terrorist attacks on Israeli territory and the Israeli offensive in the Palestinian Gaza Strip.
