By order of the minister, we stayed by their side to assist in all their needs during their stay or departure in Albania. We are also in contact and have stayed close to citizens from Kosovo, Montenegro and North Macedonia. On behalf of the Albanian government, I guarantee that all Albanian citizens who are currently in Israel, live and work there, are our priority at this time and are requested to contact us for any needs they have in their stay or departure from Israel. In cooperation with the Israel’s structures, we have made their departure possible since yesterday, an ongoing process according to the demands and needs of each citizen,” said Kumbe.
