Nestle said it has "temporarily shut down" of one of its production plants in Israel as a "precaution", becoming the first consumer products giant to announce a response to the conflict there.
Several global companies have temporarily shut some operations in Israel and asked their employees to work from home after the country came under a surprise attack by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas earlier this month.
"Our focus is on keeping our colleagues and employees safe. I have no comment on the development of the business," Nestle Chief Executive Mark Schneider said on an earnings call with journalists. "We've taken necessary precautions."
