Countries race to evacuate nationals as Israel-Iran conflict escalates
NF Times
|June 20, 2025
Governments around the world are evacuating thousands of their nationals caught up in the rapidly spiralling Israel-Iran conflict, organising buses and planes and in some cases assisting people crossing borders on foot.
-
Foreigners have rushed to leave both countries after Israel launched an unprecedented bombing campaign on Friday targeting Iran's nuclear and military facilities, sparking retaliation from Tehran.
With Israel's air space closed and the two countries exchanging heavy missile fire, many people are being evacuated via neighbouring countries.
Europe
European countries have already repatriated hundreds of their citizens from Israel.
The Czech Republic and Slovakia have taken 181 people home on government planes.
"The evacuees were taken to an airport in a neighbouring country by buses. They crossed the border on foot," the Czech defence ministry said in a statement.
Germany scheduled flights for Wednesday and Thursday via Jordan, while Poland said the first of its citizens would also arrive back on Wednesday.
Greece said it had repatriated 105 of its citizens plus a number of foreign nationals via Egypt, while a private plane with 148 people landed in the Bulgarian capital Sofia on Tuesday.
United States
The US ambassador to Israel announced plans on Wednesday for evacuating Americans by air and sea.
