The Russian Foreign Ministry strongly recommends that Russians refrain from traveling to the Middle East region, especially Israel, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories, unless absolutely necessary" Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told media outlets.
The security situation in Jordan, she said, is stable, and a transfer of hostilities from the Gaza Strip seems unlikely.
