Key Points

**Title:** Andorra Endavant Pushes for App to Track Citizens Abroad Amid Middle East Conflict **Summary:** Political party renews call for real-time mobile app to monitor Andorrans in hotspots like Israel and Dubai, citing safety concerns from escalating.

**Body:** The Andorran foreign affairs ministry is assessing whether any vulnerable nationals are present in the Middle East to determine if prioritised evacuations might be needed, as tensions continue in the region.

This comes amid Andorra Endavant's renewed push for a mobile app to track citizens and residents abroad in real time. The party, led by Carine Montaner, first proposed the tool earlier and has stepped up its advocacy given the conflict's escalation. Officials have noted growing risks for Andorrans in areas including Israel and Dubai.

Supporters say the app would provide critical location data to authorities and relatives in crises. It aligns with broader consular efforts, though no specifics on budget, rollout or deadlines have surfaced.

The government has expressed concern over the situation but has not yet responded directly to the proposal. Recent ministry evaluations focus on identifying at-risk individuals rather than confirming any immediate actions.
