Israel's National Security Council (NSC) has issued a special warning to the public regarding an increased risk of terrorist attacks and violent demonstrations targeting Israelis and Jews worldwide. The advisory comes ahead of the third anniversary of the October 7th massacre.
According to the NSC, terror organizations, particularly Iran and its proxies like Hamas and global jihad elements, view the anniversary as a significant date for carrying out hostile actions. The council urges Israelis abroad or planning travel to exercise heightened vigilance and avoid posting travel plans or locations on social media. They also advise against sharing content indicating service in security forces.
Further recommendations include staying away from protests and gatherings. In destinations with a Level 3 travel warning, Israelis are advised to minimize speaking Hebrew in crowded public places. The NSC strongly recommends completely avoiding travel to countries under a Level 4 travel warning, which include Jordan, Qatar, Somaliland, and Egypt, including the Sinai Peninsula.
In the event of an emergency, the NSC advises contacting local security forces first, followed by the NSC's 24/7 travel warning hotline.
