The situation in Israel remains “extremely worrying”, with some areas practically in a state of war, Szijjarto said, according to a foreign ministry statement.
The Hungarian government’s top priority in such a situation is to ensure the safety of Hungarians, he said.
The government has established contact with hundreds of people, 215 of whom were evacuated on two aircraft of the Hungarian Air Force last night, he said. One plane then returned to Tel Aviv to rescue 110 more people, he added.
All Hungarians who have asked for assistance in returning home have landed in Hungary or are en route home, with the third flight having recently left Israel’s airspace, Szijjarto said.
Altogether 310 of those evacuated are Hungarians and 15 of them foreign nationals, among them Israeli, Swedish, German, British, Austrian and Portuguese citizens, he said. Fully 46 of those rescued are children, he added.
