Canada has made the difficult decision to evacuate the children and guardians of its diplomats from Israel, as reported by The Canadian Press.
Global Affairs Canada emphasized that while diplomats' families are being relocated to safe third countries, diplomatic missions in Tel Aviv, Beirut, and Ramallah remain "fully operational."
The Canadian government has also issued stark warnings to its citizens, advising against all travel to Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank due to the "unpredictable security situation."
