L'înformâtion et les sèrvices publyis pouor I'Île dé Jèrri

Statement from the Chief Minister on The Middle East

01 March 2026

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the recent events in the Middle East.

Many Islanders have personal or professional connections to the region, and they will naturally be concerned for family, friends and colleagues.

At a time of heightened uncertainty, our priority is to ensure that those who may be affected have access to clear, reliable information.

Anyone who is considering travelling to the region, or has close connections there, is strongly encouraged to consult the latest updates on the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) website. Country-specific travel and consular advice is being reviewed and updated regularly as the situation develops.

The Government of Jersey continues to monitor events closely through established channels. We remain in regular contact with UK authorities and will provide further updates or support for Islanders if it becomes necessary.

We recognise that events of this nature are distressing. Islanders who are worried or directly affected are encouraged to seek support and make use of available services.

Our thoughts remain with all those impacted, and we will continue to keep the situation under close review.​​
