Phuket Chabad House Cancels Holiday Dinner Amid Security Threats
A festive holiday meal planned for hundreds of Israeli tourists at the Chabad House in Phuket, Thailand, was canceled due to security concerns. The decision was made at the direct request of Israeli security services following a pro-Palestinian protest in the vicinity.
Protesters chanted slogans in support of Palestine for several hours near the Chabad House. Organizers sent urgent notifications to registered participants, citing a real security threat and the potential for aggression from the demonstrators.
Tourists were strongly advised to avoid the area and stay away from the event location for their own safety. The Chabad House is a popular gathering place for Jewish travelers.
