Foreign Ministry urges Israelis looking to fly home to book flights immediately
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Foreign Ministry is calling on all Israelis abroad who are looking to return home to book flights immediately.
Army Radio initially reported that the directive was to all Israelis regardless of their future travel plans.
A spokesman for the ministry says Israelis abroad should not expect the country to provide free charter flights if a decision is made to halt all air traffic.
Yesterday, the Interior Ministry announced that it would only be allowing citizens and those who base their lives in Israel into the country.
