According to Mirex, the government has established a "regular channel of communication" with members of this community through its diplomatic mission in Cairo, Egypt, to monitor the "distressing situation" faced by Angolans living in Lebanon, given the escalation of tension in the Middle East.
The community is made up of around 50 families, spread across the towns of Beirut, Alai, Ras el Dekwaneh and Rahbeh, and is made up mostly of wives of Lebanese citizens, their children and direct dependents.
Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah flared up a year ago, when the Lebanese Islamist group began launching missiles towards northern Israeli territory as a sign of support for the Palestinian cause.
The Israeli army stepped up its offensive against Hezbollah in mid-September, with bombings in southern Lebanon and the capital Beirut, killing much of the Shiite militia's leadership, including its leader, Hasan Nasrallah.
A little over a week ago, Israel also began a ground incursion into southern Lebanon.
