Israel's National Security Council (NSC) has issued a stark warning to Israelis traveling abroad, anticipating heightened risks of terrorist attacks and public disturbances in the lead-up to the third anniversary of the October 7th massacre. The NSC highlighted that terror organizations, particularly Iran and its proxies like Hamas and global jihad elements, view this anniversary as a significant date for potential actions.
To mitigate these risks, the public is strongly advised to avoid pre-announcing travel plans on social media, refrain from visiting countries under a Level 4 travel advisory, specifically Jordan, Qatar, Somaliland, Egypt, and the Sinai Peninsula, and minimize speaking Hebrew in crowded public places in Level 3 advisory destinations. Israelis are also urged to stay clear of demonstrations and gatherings, and to refrain from posting content online that indicates service in security forces. In case of emergencies abroad, the NSC recommends contacting local security forces first, and provided a dedicated hotline for terror-related travel warnings.
