Alerta de viaje : Israel desaconseja visitas a Marruecos y otros países durante la Pascua judía

In anticipation of the Jewish Easter holiday also called Passover or Mimouna, the Israeli National Security Council (NSC) has just advised Israelis not to travel to Morocco, Egypt, and two other countries. The current geopolitical conditions since the war of the Israeli army against the Palestinian movement Hamas in the Gaza Strip make it necessary.

In addition to Morocco and Egypt, the Israeli National Security Council (NSC) also advises Israelis not to travel to Turkey and Jordan to celebrate the Jewish Easter, which runs from April 5 to 13 in Israel and from April 5 to 14 for Jews around the world. Turkey, Morocco, Jordan and Egypt are destinations that "should be avoided at the moment," said an Israeli official. The NSC justifies its warning due to security risks for Israeli citizens in these countries because of the fallout from the war waged by the IDF in Gaza against Hamas and the anger simmering in the public opinion of the Arab countries.

The NSC urges Israeli citizens to avoid traveling to Sweden where the Eurovision Song Contest will be held in May. It has also banned them from traveling to Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Iran, considered "enemy" countries, and to Algeria, Libya, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Somalia classified as "high threat" level. The NSC advises Israeli tourists to avoid crowded places (shopping malls, markets). It also calls on them to remain vigilant in public places, not to publish travel details on social networks, and to avoid displaying Israeli symbols.
