Tel Aviv (VNA) - The Vietnamese Embassy in Israel has issued a letter expressing gra🦩titude to the Vietnamese community in the country for their solidarity, cooperation, and strict compliance with safety guidelines issued by the Israel Home Front Command during the recent period of heightened tensions stemming from the conflict between Israel and Iran.
The letter highlighted that during the days of intense conflict, the Vietnamese community remained calm, united, and supportive of one another. Many individuals actively updated and shared information with the Embassy, reported conditions in their shelter areas, and volunteered within Vietnamese groups to exchange updates and offer mutual assistance during the war. These small yet deeply meaningful gestures have fostered a warm, caring, and close-knit Vietnamese community in Israel.
With the ceasefire now in effect and security conditions temporarily stabilised, the Embassy reported that all members of the Vietnamese community remain absolutely safe, with no adverse health incidents recorded. While some households suffered property damage, all members have remained unharmed.
Looking ahead, the Embassy encourages the community to continue upholding their spirit of unity and mutual support, overcome current difficulties, and gradually resume normal life, work, and study. The Embassy hoped that the resilience demonstrated during this challenging time will further strengthen the community’s connection to their homeland, deepen their appreciation for peace, and contribute more actively to the friendship between Vietnam and Israel.
