The top defense and foreign policy decision-making body in Greece, KYSEA, will convene an emergency meeting on Wednesday in response to Iran's missile attack on Israel on Tuesday.

For 4.30 p.m., Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis will preside over the meeting.

Although there are not any evacuations taking place right now, authorities are allegedly prepared with an evacuation plan for Greek citizens in Israel and Lebanon.

Following a call between Defense Minister Nikos Dendias and his Cypriot counterpart Vasilis Palmas on Tuesday, Greece will also assist in the evacuation of Cypriot nationals from Lebanon using a C-130 military aircraft.

Iran launched ballistic missiles at Israel on Tuesday in retaliation for Israel’s operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israel’s military later lifted its alert status, reporting no injuries.
