Egypt’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Monday that it is closely monitoring the situation of Egyptian communities across the region amid a serious escalation and widening conflict.
In a statement, the ministry said that, responding to directives from President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, it is following developments closely to ensure the safety and well-being of Egyptian nationals abroad.
Foreign Minister Badr Abdel-Aati held phone calls with Egyptian ambassadors in the region to obtain detailed updates on the conditions of Egyptian communities, including citizens stranded abroad for tourism or medical treatment.
Abdel-Aati instructed embassies to maintain round-the-clock monitoring, strengthen direct communication through dedicated hotlines, and provide full consular support and care for stranded Egyptians until safe return arrangements are made.
The minister also checked on conditions of citizens who sustained minor injuries, confirming that all received medical treatment and have been discharged after recovery.
The ministry renewed its call for Egyptians in the region to exercise caution, remain vigilant, and maintain continuous contact with embassies and consulates, while strictly complying with local authorities’ instructions.
The Foreign Ministry affirmed that it will carry on to monitor developments closely and take all necessary measures to safeguard Egyptian citizens abroad.
