Nations worldwide have begun evacuating citizens from Lebanon after a sharp escalation in the conflict between Israel and Iran-backed Lebanese armed movement Hezbollah. People are also fleeing on their own.
Here are details of evacuations or plans to evacuate:

More than 400 people arrived on the east Mediterranean island on two chartered flights on Saturday, and more were expected on Sunday. More flights could be expected based on demand, Australian and Cypriot officials said.
