Chisinau, 24 September /MOLDPRES/ - Moldova’s Ambassador to Israel Alexandr Roitman urges the Moldovans who are on the Israeli territory to be vigilant, to observe all instructions by the authorities and follow only the official information sources. The urge comes in the context of the Israeli military operations carried out in north Israel and in southern Lebanon.

The head of the diplomatic mission said that no official requests had been registered in behalf of Moldovan citizens in the wake of these events so far. ‘’The situation stays volatile and the future developments are not known,’’ the diplomat stressed.
