Hoi,
For something more recent, what about the 1973 Yom Kippur war ?
Thanks,

NB the notion that it is currently not a war zone is correct :)

I don't think the Foundation is in the position to do the work of
multiple embassies in this regard.
Agreed. If the worst happens, people should rely on their country's
embassy, not the WMF - last time I checked, the WMF was not equipped
to evacuate people from a warzone...
And last I checked, Egypt is not a warzone.
