The UK government said on Thursday that it has chartered a limited number of flights from Lebanon to support British nationals to leave the country in response to the deteriorating security situation.
"To meet the demand for the charter flight on Wednesday, additional flights will depart from Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport from Thursday. The flights will continue for as long as the security situation allows," a government statement said.
The announcement came after more than 150 British nationals and dependents left Beirut on a government-chartered flight on Wednesday as a growing number of countries work to bring back citizens amid rising tension in the Middle East.
