Charity News Online

About 40 citizens of the post-Soviet republics rather than Russia have been evacuated from Lebanon to Cyprus, a spokesman for the Russian Embassy in Beirut told the Russian news agencies Interfax.

He said that Lebanese charity groups had provided assistance to Russian authorities in the evacuation of those people. "All Russians wishing to leave Lebanon, who managed to reach the embassy, have been evacuated through Syria," the embassy official said.
