France is preparing to help its citizens in Israel and Iran to leave those countries, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot has said, Al Jazeera reports.

Barrot told reporters that a convoy will be arranged by the end of the week to get French nationals without their own means of doing so to the Turkish or Armenian borders with Iran to access airports in those countries.

French citizens in Israel, meanwhile, will be able to board buses starting tomorrow morning from the Jordanian border for airports in Jordan, with a flight chartered from Amman by the end of the week to aid the passage of French citizens who are vulnerable or in emergency situations, Barrot said.

Separately, Barrot reiterated that France was committed to holding a conference on a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians, after France postponed one scheduled for this week.
