Bulgaria's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, through the Embassy of Bulgaria in Tel Aviv, managed to secure 57 seats for Bulgarian citizens on a flight of a private airline for 11 October 2023. Among those successfully brought out of Israel are 29 tourists, families with small children and citizens located in particularly risky areas, humanitarian cases.

If the security situation permits, the possibility remains to travel Tel Aviv Sofia with regular flights of Bulgaria Air and El Al, as well as the Haifa - Larnaca (Cyprus) ferry line, reports the Bulgarian foreign ministry. With the implementation of the mentioned opportunities, practically all Bulgarian citizens who have applied for a short-term stay in Israel, as well as several humanitarian cases, will be covered. 

This is the third flight for the evacuation of Bulgarians from Tel Aviv.
The Bulgarian embassy in Tel Aviv informs that Ben Gurion Airport continues to operate with limited capacity and various airlines operate part of their scheduled flights to other countries.

The Directorate "Situation Center" at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria in Tel Aviv are preparing a list of Bulgarian citizens who wish to be deported from Israel, which will be used for a possible future flight from the country.
