The Bangladesh Embassy in Doha has issued a special security alert for Bangladeshi expatriates living in Qatar amid escalating tensions in the Middle East following the Iran–Israel conflict.
The
advisory was issued through an emergency notice on Saturday.
The embassy urged expatriates to avoid going outdoors unnecessarily and to stay away from military installations. They have been requested to remain in safe locations until the situation returns to normal.
Considering
possible emergency circumstances, expatriates have been advised to keep
essential items with them at all times, including their Qatar ID (QID), health
card, necessary medicines, dry food, cash and mobile phone chargers.
In
the notice, the embassy also called on expatriates to remain respectful of
Qatar’s local laws. They have been specifically asked not to upload any photos
or videos related to the war situation on social media, as doing so may violate
existing laws in Qatar. The embassy urged everyone to exercise maximum caution
in this regard.
For
any emergency assistance, expatriates have been advised to contact the embassy
hotline at +974 33662000 or via email at [email protected].
