Ukrainian-language hotline for tourists now available in Egypt

The Ukrainian-language hotline in Egypt has been introduced for Ukrainian tourists to help in emergencies, according to the Ukrainian Ministry for Foreign Affairs.

“From now on, all the necessary consultations in Ukrainian about vacation can be obtained on phone number 196-54 in Egypt," the ministry posted on its Facebook page.

“The Ministry for Foreign Affairs is constantly working to make the world more open and convenient for Ukrainians. This is part of Ukraine’s Foreign Policy Strategy,” the ministry added.

The MFA also called on Ukrainians to check the current conditions of entry into a particular country using an interactive online map on the MFA website.

As Ukrinform reported, in July, Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs Dmytro Senik and Vice Minister for Tourism and Antiquities of Egypt Ghada Shalaby discussed the creation of a Ukrainian-language hotline for Ukrainian tourists to help in emergency situations.
