Iran-Israel Tensions Escalate: Hundreds of Israelis Fleeing the Country

The ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel is intensifying, forcing hundreds of Israeli citizens and foreign nationals to flee Israel amid rising fears of a prolonged war and continued missile attacks from Iran.

According to international media reports, the growing Iranian strikes and the threat of full-scale war have led to a wave of people leaving Israel. With the country’s airspace reportedly restricted, many individuals are now using small boats to escape to Cyprus.

Sources indicate that those fleeing include both Israeli nationals and foreign residents, who view the current security situation as increasingly dangerous. Reports from Israeli media confirm that passengers departing from Haifa via boats are paying around $800 per person for the journey.

In response to the growing tension, Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi, senior advisor to the Commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has directly warned Israel that Tehran is fully prepared for a long-term war. He further stated that Iran is ready to deploy advanced weaponry if necessary and hinted at unveiling new military technologies soon.
