Saudi Arabia Urges Citizens to Leave Lebanon Amid Rising Tensions in the Middle East
The Saudi Arabian Embassy in Lebanon has issued a statement urging all Saudi citizens to immediately leave the country due to increasing tensions in the region. The embassy is closely monitoring the situation in southern Lebanon and reiterating its travel ban to Lebanon.
Saudi citizens currently in Lebanon are advised to contact the embassy in case of emergencies and to leave the country as soon as possible. The embassy’s priority is the safety and security of all citizens amidst the escalating conflicts.
Meanwhile, fighting between Israeli troops and Hamas in Gaza’s Rafah has raised concerns about a potential wider regional war involving Hezbollah in Lebanon. Despite Israel’s easing bombardment in Gaza, the United States has warned of the risk of a major conflict with Hezbollah, emphasizing the devastating consequences of a regional war.
This situation underscores the importance of diplomatic efforts to prevent further escalation and preserve peace in the Middle East.
