The government will gradually evacuate Bulgarians from Lebanon. Preparation for the air evacuation of Bulgarian citizens wishing to leave Lebanon is underway. The decision was taken at a meeting convened by caretaker Premier Dimitar Glavchev with the participation of representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Transport and Communications, the Secretariat of the Security Council and the services.
Other evacuation options are also being considered. All Bulgarian nationals who wish to be evacuated have been identified. They will be informed of the time and place of the evacuation through the Bulgarian Embassy in Beirut, in coordination with the Situation Center at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Priority will be given to families with children and vulnerable groups.
“We must act quickly, but the primary concern is the safety of Bulgarian citizens—both those who wish to be evacuated and the teams that will carry out the evacuation”, said Dimitar Glavchev.
President Rumen Radev has been informed of the actions taken by the Bulgarian government.
