Israelis abroad urged to take extra care tomorrow, when Hamas has urged ‘day of rage’
The Foreign Ministry and the National Security Council issue a joint statement urging all Israelis staying abroad to take extra care tomorrow, citing the Hamas terror group’s call on its supporters worldwide to participate in a “day of rage.”
This, the statement says, is expected to include attempted attacks on Israelis and Jews and rallies that might turn violent.
Israelis abroad are recommended to “show alertness, stay away from protests and demonstrations, and if possible get updates from local security forces about possible protests and incidents of unrest around them.”
Hebrew media reports say security will be upped in Israeli embassies worldwide tomorrow.
