JAKARTA: Indonesia will evacuate its citizens from the Palestinian Territories once the situation is safe for it to do so, said Foreign Affairs Minister Retno Marsudi on Wednesday, and contingency plans are being worked on to ensure they return safely.

Efforts by the archipelago to bring home its people are running concurrently with those of other countries in the region, as nations including Singapore advise their citizens to leave Israel as soon as possible via available commercial options.
