Tel Aviv (VNA) - The Vietnamese Embassy in Israel has confirmed that all Vietnamese citizens residing in the country are safe following Iran’s overnight missile attacks on Israel from late June 14 into the early hours of June 15 (local time).

The embassy has affirmed its readiness to implement necessary emergency support measures to ensure the safety and rights of Vietnamese nationals in the country.
