The Russian Embassy in Israel has advised its citizens to leave the country until the situation normalizes, Russian ambassador Anatoly Viktorov announced on June 16.

According to the ambassador, it is possible to leave the country in the south by moving to Egypt.

“We mean the possibility of evacuation, but we believe that citizens who wish to ensure their safety have the means to do so. We are closely following the situation. If necessary, we will make further decisions,” the ambassador concluded.
