Rescue flights from Dubai to Israel, originally scheduled to continue until Thursday, are now in jeopardy due to security issues. Unlike previous disruptions, the Mossad is involved in addressing these security concerns. Efforts are underway with relevant authorities to prevent a halt to the rescue operation.
This situation follows a previous report that raised questions about the continuation of these flights. The Emirates have unilaterally canceled all slots previously granted to airlines. Thousands of Israelis have already returned from Dubai as part of the ongoing rescue operation.
Relevant parties are currently working to resolve the issue and permit the flights to resume. Israir has informed passengers that a final decision regarding their flights will be provided by 10:00 AM tomorrow, as the company awaits developments and ongoing diplomatic efforts. El Al has already canceled its scheduled flights for tomorrow. Arkia plans a flight for tomorrow evening but has not yet received final confirmation of its approval.
Meanwhile, Flydubai has concluded its investigation into a recent incident, leading to employee dismissals. The airline is seeking to resume flights to Israel, but the Minister of Transport and the CEO of the Airports Authority have not yet approved their return. The objective is to facilitate the return of Flydubai as well as enable Israeli airlines to resume operations in Dubai.
