The British Foreign Office has confirmed its decision to temporarily withdraw certain staff members from the British embassy in Lebanon. This move comes as a response to the ongoing conflict
between neighboring Israel and Gaza. In light of the situation, the Foreign Office had already issued guidance advising British citizens against all travel to Lebanon.
They have also strongly encouraged any British nationals currently in Lebanon to depart while commercial flight options are still available. Photo by DAVID HOLT from London, England, Wikimedia commons.
