The National Security Council warns that the “terrorist infrastructure” that murdered Rabbi Zvi Kogan in the UAE last week is planning additional attacks on Israelis and Jews in Southeast Asia, especially Thailand.

Thailand is a popular tourist destination for Israelis.

The NSC recommends that Israelis in Southeast Asia avoid going to places identified with Israel and/or Jews; maintain increased vigilance in public places; refrain from displaying Israeli symbols; contact local authorities in case of a threat or violence; avoid posting details of the trip on social media, and lock social media profiles; and avoid sharing details about service in the IDF or other security services online or in conversation.

“Israeli security officials continue to work with all relevant partners in order to remove the threat,” the NSC says.
