Summary:

• Around 5,500 Nepali nationals live and work in Israel, and about a dozen in Iran. Despite the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, all Nepalis in these countries are reported safe.
• Nepal’s ambassador to Israel, Dhan Prasad Pandit, confirmed that Nepalis in Israel are taking precautions such as rushing to bunkers within 90 seconds of missile sirens. Fighting mainly happens at night, and Nepalis have adapted to living under these conditions.
• No Nepali has requested evacuation so far, so the embassy has not initiated rescue efforts but is ready to assist if needed.
• The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Nepal is closely monitoring the situation and has instructed ambassadors to stay in regular contact with Nepali communities, providing updated security information.
• In Iran, 11 Nepalis are safe outside jail, while five Nepalis are currently imprisoned for traveling through another country. Rescue efforts for those jailed are on hold due to the war.
• The Nepalese government is actively coordinating and prioritizing the safety of its citizens abroad amid the Israel-Iran conflict.
