The embassy staff who left had been confined to their compounds for weeks during February and early March.
Flight KOR271 left Pyongyang at 08:40 local time on Monday (23:40 on Sunday) and arrived in Vladivostok at 10:47, said flight tracking site FlightAware.
At least 60 diplomats and embassy staff were thought to be on the flight. It’s not known how or when they will return to their home countries.
The British ambassador to North Korea tweeted early on Monday that he was “sad to say farewell to colleagues from [the] Germany Embassy and French Office”.
Colin Crooks added that other embassies were closing temporarily but that the British embassy would remain open.
