Diplomats are preparing the first evacuation flight for Ukrainian citizens from Israel to Romania on Saturday, October 14, according to the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Oleg Nikolenko.
“More than a thousand Ukrainian citizens have asked for help in leaving Israel due to canceled flights. Diplomats are preparing the first evacuation flight to Romania for Saturday, October 14. We are working on organizing additional evacuation flights,” Nikolenko wrote on Facebook.
The Foreign Ministry noted that details will be sent to citizens who have provided their data to the Ukrainian embassy in Tel Aviv.
In addition, about 200 Ukrainians have expressed a desire to evacuate from Gaza, but due to the lack of security, it is still impossible to leave.
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ukrainian embassies in Israel, Egypt, Jordan, as well as other Ukrainian agencies involved are making active efforts to get our people out as soon as possible,” emphasized Nikolenko.
