Japan is the latest country to urge its citizens to leave Lebanon amid escalating Israeli strikes.
“We’re currently checking the safety of Japanese citizens living in Lebanon, as well as urging them to leave the country while regular commercial flights remain in operation”, chief cabinet secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi said Friday.
Japan’s government is also planning to dispatch military aircraft to Jordan, where it will be on stand-by to potentially evacuate stranded Japanese citizens from Lebanon, according to media reports, including from Japan’s Kyodo News.
