Armenia`s Embassy in Israel urges Armenian nationals to refrain from traveling to southern regions
ArmInfo.The Armenian Embassy in Israel urged Armenian citizens, who are currently in this country,
to refrain from visiting the southern regions of the country, saying those who are in the south should immediately move to safer areas.
"It is recommended to stay in hotels or apartments if possible, so
that in case of an air raid one can reach a shelter within a minute.
One should remain in shelter for at least 10 minutes after the end of
the air raid alert," the embassy warned in a Facebook message. It
said there is also a hotline: 050 6670345 direct call (citizens are
advised not to use WhatsApp, Viber apps).
Armed militants from Gaza launched a surprise attack on Israel at
dawn on Saturday, killing hundreds of Israeli soldiers and civilians
and taking many hostages.
"Armenian institutions did not suffer any damage. If necessary, we
will issue an additional message," Ani Badalyan, Spokesperson for
Armenia's foreign office, said.
