China Calls on Its Citizens to Exit Israel
(MENAFN) As deadly exchanges between Israel and Iran intensify, China has issued a fresh security alert for its nationals in Israel, urging them to remain vigilant and heed local emergency guidance.
The Chinese Embassy in Israel “once again reminds Chinese nationals in the country to closely monitor ongoing developments and strictly follow safety alerts and emergency instructions issued by the relevant Israeli authorities,” according to a report from a Chinese news agency.
The advisory also highlighted available exit routes for those considering departure. Three land crossings into Jordan—Jordan River, Allenby Bridge, and Yitzhak Rabin—are operational.
“Travelers may proceed to these points at their own discretion, provided it is safe to do so,” the report noted.
This renewed warning comes in the wake of intensified missile attacks between Iran and Israel, triggered by Israeli airstrikes last Friday.
The Iranian Health Ministry reported at least 128 fatalities and over 900 injuries since the strikes began. In retaliation, Iranian missile barrages have resulted in 13 Israeli deaths and more than 370 injuries, according to Israeli officials.
Earlier, on Wednesday, Beijing also cautioned its citizens against working in politically volatile areas such as East Jerusalem and West Bank settlements. The government stressed that employment in these zones contravenes bilateral labor agreements.
Workers in such areas, it added, would be considered in breach of contract and ineligible for consular assistance.
The warnings underscore China's growing concern for its nationals amid the spiraling conflict in the Middle East.
