Twenty-six countries have requested Cyprus’ assistance in repatriating their nationals from both Israel and the Gaza Strip, Konstantinos Letymbiotis, spokesman for the government of Cyprus, said on Monday.

Earlier on Monday, Cyprus’ National Council examined the situation in the region and possible developments that could affect Cyprus.

Portugal, the United Kingdom and Denmark have already evacuated aboard military transport planes from Tel Aviv to Cyprus around 600 people, of whom 447 have already departed from Cyprus on commercial flights. The number of people arriving aboard commercial flights has dropped sharply, as TUS Airways and Cyprus Airways have suspended their flights to and from Tel Aviv since the end of the previous week, citing security considerations.
