UK advises against non-essential travel to Israel, and against all travel to some areas
Britain advises its citizens against non-essential travel to Israel due to a heightened state of tension and violent clashes in the region. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office also advises against all travel in parts of northern and southern Israel, most of the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip.
“FCDO advises against all travel to the area close to the border with Gaza and all but essential travel to the rest of Israel and the OPTs,” it says in a statement.
Its website offers more specifics on areas in northern and southern Israel where it advises against all travel.
The UK has advised its citizens against all travel to Lebanon since last week.
