The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Macedonian Embassy in Tel Aviv issued an urgent appeal to all Macedonian citizens currently in Israel. Due to the escalating security situation caused by coordinated Israeli-American air strikes on Iran and Iran's counter-attack with missiles and drones, citizens are urged to take precautionary measures.

The instructions are clear: citizens should remain in or near a protected space, secure supplies of basic foodstuffs and water, follow official information, and not move until the situation stabilises.

Israeli airspace is closed to civilian flights with no specific date for reopening. All commercial airlines have cancelled their flights to and from Israel. Citizens wishing to leave the country currently have no option for regular air transport.

The Embassy in Tel Aviv is available on the following emergency numbers: +972 54 500 8566 and +972 54 967 0546. The Ministry is also reachable on +389 75 273 732 and +389 75 268 736 for coordination and support.

Citizens in need are urged to seek assistance through official channels, notify the consular section of their location, and remain in contact with their relatives in Macedonia.
