As tensions between Israel and Iran escalate, the Chinese mainland has pledged to assist all Chinese nationals—including residents of Taiwan—in evacuating safely from conflict zones. 🚨 A spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office confirmed Wednesday that support is already underway, with some Taiwan compatriots relocated to neighboring countries.
What’s Happening?
The Chinese Embassy in Israel has urged citizens, including Taiwan residents holding mainland travel documents, to register for evacuation assistance. Over 1,000 people have already sought help since clashes intensified last week. 📋
"We’ve always prioritized Taiwan compatriots’ safety, whether during typhoons, earthquakes, or emergencies like this," said spokesperson Zhu Fenglian.
How to Get Help
Affected individuals can contact the nearest Chinese embassy or dial the 24/7 consular hotline at 12308. The mainland’s swift response mirrors past efforts, like its 2023 evacuation of Taiwan students during Sudan’s civil war. 📞
This move highlights cross-strait solidarity, even as political complexities persist. For young travelers and professionals abroad, it’s a reminder: always know your embassy’s contact info. 🌏✨
