The embassy is closely monitoring the situation and remains in regular contact with Israeli authorities to ensure the safety of all Indian nationals.
The advisory also highlights the importance of staying informed about the latest developments and following instructions from local authorities. Indian nationals are encouraged to register with the embassy to receive updates and assistance.
The embassy's safety advisory underscores the volatile security situation in the Middle East and the potential risks for Indian citizens residing in the region. It is crucial for Indian nationals to remain vigilant, follow safety guidelines, and stay informed about the latest developments to ensure their well-being.
