In the Middle East, Israel and Iran have been bombing each other and more recently the U.S. has bombed Iran.
The SRE (SecretarÃa de Relaciones Exteriores), Mexico’s foreign ministry, has continued to evacuate Mexicans from the Middle East. (See this previous article on the topic).
As of June 22nd, 2025, the SRE reported that it had evacuated 175 Mexicans.
As a service to my readers, here below is a world map, showing all the countries mentioned in the article in red:
From a June 22nd SRE Twitter X tweet:
“MEXICAN EMBASSIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST CONTINUE ON ALERT, OFFERING ASSISTANCE TO FELLOW MEXICANS IN THE REGION”
“The SRE personnel, through their embassies in Iran, Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Azerbaijan, remain on alert and continue offering orientation, assistance and consular protection to the female and male Mexicans found in the Midde East, particularly to faciliate their departure from the zone of conflict. To this point, they have facilitated the evacuation of 175 persons who have departed safely and are doing well.”
ISRAEL: “Israeli airspace is only partially open. The [Mexican] embassy in Israel has facilitated the departure by land and sea to Egypt, Jordan and Cyprus, of 116 Mexican persons.”
JORDAN : “The embassy in Jordan has supported the departure of 29. The [Jordanian] airspace is open, but the flights continue being irregular with frequent cancellations.”
IRAN: “The [Mexican] embassy in Iran assisted a second group of fellow Mexicans who departed successfully to Azerbaijan, where they were received by the personnel of our embassy in that country. In total 30 persons have departed from Iran, all of them are safe and well.”
