Algeria Closes Ukrainian Embassy Amid Russian Invasion

Algeria has temporarily closed its embassy in Ukraine amid the Russian Invasion of Ukraine.

The Algerian Embassy in the capital city of Kyiv said in a statement that it has suspended its services due to security conditions in Ukraine.

The embassy urged Algerian nationals in Ukraine to contact their diplomatic missions in neighboring Poland, Hungary, or Romania for any services.

The Middle East Monitor reports that Algeria had earlier evacuated 76 nationals on Thursday, most of whom are students from Ukraine through Romania.

In the coming days, Algerian authorities plan to organize three more flights to evacuate their nationals from Ukraine through Romania and Poland.

According to the Ukrainian Embassy in Algiers, there are around 1,200 Algerian students in Ukraine, in addition to an unspecified number of other Algerians residing there.
