Evacuation from Israel? Poles ask for help, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs analyzes the situation

The Foreign Affairs spokesman Paweł Wroński gave PAP on Sunday that some Poles who are in Israel signal the desire to leave this country and obtain support in it. He noted that it is still possible to leave Israel by land or sea, and the ministry will react according to the circumstances. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also recommended urgently leaving Iran by land.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasizes that the case affects over 200 people who are in Israel, registered in the Odysseus system, and is associated with the current situation in the Middle East. As Wroński pointed out, some of them signal the desire to leave Israel and get support.

On Sunday, Radio ZET reported that the organized trip of Poles from Israel and the Middle East will take place initially on Monday or Tuesday and will be carried out by border crossings in Jordan and then Amman or Egypt and Tabie – first by land and then by plane. According to the station, the Honorary Consul in Bethlehem is involved in the action. “The consulate informs everyone who intends to leave Israel, about the need for additional accommodation in anticipation of the air connection. In SMS, the facility states that travel costs are borne individually,” says Radio ZET.

Referring to this case, a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs admitted that “the initiative of the Honorary Consul is known to us”. “We know that the consul is working on his own initiative on such a solution. As I understand, this is a paid initiative,” said Wroński, pointing out that this is not an initiative of the ministry of diplomacy or organized in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Asked if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is working on its solution in this matter, or somehow support the initiative of the Honorary Consul in Bethlehem, Wroński emphasized that “there are currently expensive road roads from Israel, it is also possible to leave this country by sea transport.”
