In a notice issued on the afternoon of March 30, the embassy said multiple large-scale rocket alerts had been reported across Israel. Attacks targeting the Ne’ot Hovav chemical industrial zone and the Bazan oil refinery complex in Haifa City have raised concerns over potential hazardous material leaks, posing risks to the environment and public safety. Localised incidents elsewhere have also disrupted civilian infrastructure and daily life.
According to the Israeli Home Front Command, civil defence measures will remain in place from 8 am on March 30 to 8 pm on April 4 (local time), unchanged from the previous period. Restrictions continue in many areas, including the suspension of in-person educational activities, limits on public gatherings to no more than 50 people where standard shelters are available, and requirements that workplaces operate only if safety conditions are met. Beaches will also remain closed.
The embassy has advised Vietnamese citizens in Israel to closely follow guidance issued by the Home Front Command based on their area of residence and to be ready to access the nearest shelter when necessary. They are urged to avoid high-risk locations such as chemical plants, industrial zones, airports, seaports and critical infrastructure.
In case of nearby incidents, residents should limit movement, stay indoors, keep doors and windows closed, and strictly comply with instructions from local authorities. They are also advised not to approach, film or take photos in affected or potentially dangerous areas.
The embassy noted that, so far, more than one month since the conflict broke out, the Vietnamese community in Israel remains safe.
