Following a situation assessment held just now at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as discussions with various international actors, Minister of Foreign Affairs Yair Lapid has decided to instruct staff at the Israeli Embassy in Kiev to move to consular offices opened in the city of Lvov in western Ukraine.
The consular office in Lviv has been working to provide travel documents to Israeli citizens since Thursday (17 February 2022), and will assist citizens interested in leaving the country, primarily through land border crossings to neighboring countries.
The MFA is prepared for any development, including the possibility of a land exit. Within this framework, Israeli diplomats stationed in Lviv as well as those serving in Poland, Slovakia, Romania, Moldova, and Hungary have held visits to border crossings with Ukraine, and meetings with the authorities at the crossings, to ensure the passage of Israeli citizens who wish to leave Ukraine.
- The phone number of the office in Lviv is: +380935402099
