Swiss Cottage Cheese Imported to Israel Amid Shortage

Euro Cheese has begun importing cottage cheese from Switzerland to Israel to address a severe domestic shortage.

Emirates Halts Ticket Sales for Israelis Until Spring 2027

Emirates has suspended ticket sales for Israeli customers on its website, preventing travel with layovers in Dubai until its subsidiary FlyDubai is cleared to fly to Israel. FlyDubai's flights are not expected to begin before late November, and the restriction by Emirates could last until spring 2027. This change forces Israelis to seek alternative routes for travel to the Far East and Japan, as Dubai was a key transit point.
