STORYLINE:
Greece sent a military transport plane to Beirut Thursday to evacuate Greek and Cypriot nationals who wanted to leave Lebanon as hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah escalate.

The C-130, carrying 38 Cypriots and 22 Greeks, landed in Larnaca in Cyprus midday Thursday, before heading to a military airfield near Athens later in the day.

Greece’s Foreign Ministry has set up hotlines for its citizens living in Lebanon to call if they require assistance in leaving the country.
