Jerusalem, Israel – Filipino workers in Israel are urged to exercise extreme caution and remain vigilant following a critical advisory issued by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). According to intelligence gathered, Hezbollah is reportedly preparing a large-scale missile barrage, expected to be launched within the coming hours.
The IDF strongly advises all individuals to stay close to designated bomb shelters or “mamads” and to enter them immediately upon receiving any emergency alert.
Residents in Northern Israel have only 90 seconds, or less, to reach a shelter once a missile from Lebanon is detected. This extremely short timeframe underscores the urgency of the situation.
Filipino workers are also advised to prepare for the swift evacuation of dependents to shelters. To streamline response during an emergency alert, it is recommended to have those under your care sleep inside the shelter whenever possible, eliminating the need for immediate transfer during a crisis.
For immediate access to safety advisories, verified updates, and other crucial information, Filipinos are encouraged to follow the official WhatsApp channel of the Embassy by clicking the provided link. Staying informed through official channels is paramount for ensuring safety during this heightened security period.
This advisory highlights the volatile security situation and the critical need for preparedness among all foreign workers in Israel.
