Latin Americans leaving war-torn Lebanon

The governments of Chile, Brazil, Mexico and other countries are working frantically to help Latin American nationals leave Lebanon; for example, the Brazilian Air Force evacuated 150 people on Monday as part of a drive to free all Brazilians in Lebanon. Meanwhile, Israel’s ambassador to the Dominican Republic warned of the possibility of Hezbollah attacks in Latin American and the Caribbean, while the foreign ministers of Venezuela and Uruguay hoped that Israel can halt its military offensive.
