Israel fears the U.S. may reassess its Visa Waiver Program status following a failure to properly screen an air crew member. The program requires Israel to review information on arriving passengers and crews, a condition potentially unmet after an incident on a flydubai flight. The U.S. State Department has not commented on possible actions. Israel joined the program in 2023.
