| Israel raises travel warning for Thailand amid ‘persistence of threat’ |
| 2024-11-25 |
| [IsraelTimes] The National Security Council raises the travel warning for Thailand to Level 2, nearly two weeks after an initial warning cited "the emergence of a potential threat to Israelis in the country." The warning comes after a November 12 warning calling on Israelis to display increased vigilance, and the NSC says it is issuing the raised warning now "in light of the persistence of the threat." The NSC stresses that the threat has not grown but the council is "sharpening" its recommendations. Israelis should "avoid attending large-scale events associated with Israel, with an emphasis on those announced in advance, or places of entertainment and gathering associated with Israel. Notify local security forces if you are exposed to hostile activity targeting Israelis," the NSC says. The November 12 warning came as Thai police reportedly warned of a terror plot at the November 15 Full Moon party on the popular vacation island of Koh Phangan. |
