Foreign Minister Anita Anand says more than 500 Canadians in the Middle East have the support of the federal government during the conflict between Iran and Israel.
More than 100 people will board a flight from Jordan on Tuesday evening, he added.
Anand told reporters in the Hague that these people have included Canadians registered through Canada's overseas system of registration until Tuesday, while others have “reached the border.”
However, he did not specify how the federal government had helped these Canadians.
Anand said, “There is a lot of activity, dare to dare to say the fluctuations at the international stage, but Canada is here and we stand for our own interests, standing for our own interests, including Canada, at every turn,” Anand said. “
He added that additional consular assistance has been provided in the region.
The minister also said that he had an “unprecedented” call with Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Argchi last week.
“My talk with the Iranian Foreign Minister was the first, indicating the need for safety and security of Canadian citizens in Iran,” he said. Second, requesting diplomatic and peaceful resolution of the dispute and returning to the negotiating table and supporting the importance of PS752 and the victims of PS752, “he said. “
“It was unparalleled, but the reason for the call was very specific and I have outlined these three reasons for you here.”

A day after Anand's update came after a day after Global Affairs Canadian officials provided a refreshing work on the situation in the region, officials said, adding that all Canadians and West Bank needed in Israel were given powers.
In his remarks, Anand did not specify which countries in the region are living more than 500 Canadians who have been supported, and not where more than 100 people were traveled.
Canada has no diplomatic representation in Iran, however, officials said staff have been in various Iranian crossing to help Canada, with more than 20 members of its fast deployment team in the region.
More than 4,000 Canadian inquiries have been obtained in the region from June 12, senior officials said.
Global Affairs Canada has called on Canadian residents in Iran to leave now, as it is unable to provide assistance inside Iran.
Canadian consular staff has been deployed to neighboring countries in the region, including Turkey, Armenia and Azerbaijan, for Canadians who are eligible to leave Iran through border crossing.
Where they should get out of Iran and where they can receive consular assistance, the details will be sent to Canadians who are registered with World Affairs Canada.
Anand's refreshing begins several hours after US President Donald Trump's announcement of Iran and Israel Agreed to “full and complete ceasefire” More than 24 hours is phased.
The status of this ceasefire is not clear.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office Israel attacked the Iranian radar in response to an Iranian missile attack early Tuesday, when the ceasefire affected it.
Official media reported that the Iranian military refused to firing on Israel, though the blasts in the north of the country accelerated and sirens began.
