Foreign Ministry hasn’t received any reports of Israelis injured in southeast Asia earthquake

Israeli embassies in Southeast Asia are checking in with Israelis in Myanmar, Thailand and Laos following a powerful earthquake earlier today, the Foreign Ministry says.

Israel operates embassies in Thailand and Myanmar, while Laos is covered by the embassy in Vietnam.

At this point, the Foreign Ministry says it has not received any reports of Israelis having been injured.

Warning that there will likely be additional tremors, the ministry urges Israelis in the impacted region to follow the guidelines issued by local authorities, which it says will be made available on the Foreign Ministry website as they are published.
