The United States on Monday issued a strong warning to its citizens, urging them not to travel to Israel due to rising threats of violence and instability. According to an advisory from the US State Department, there are credible concerns that terrorist groups may be planning attacks in the region. The notice stressed that these attacks could happen suddenly, with little or no warning, and may target public spaces popular with tourists.
Officials described the situation as unpredictable, especially in cities like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. They highlighted the possibility of sudden incidents such as rocket strikes, armed drone activity, and missile launches. This latest alert upgrades last week’s advisory, which had merely recommended Americans reconsider travel plans to Israel.
The government continues monitoring the situation and has urged travelers already in the area to remain cautious and informed.
