You are advised to exercise a high degree of caution in Israel at this time due to the high threat of terrorist attack. Attacks could occur at any time and anywhere in Israel.
Pay close attention to your personal security at all times and monitor the media for information about possible new safety or security risks.
You are advised not to travel to areas around the Gaza Strip due to the possibility of rocket fire, which has in the past reached as far as Be’er Sheva (40 km from the Gaza Strip).
Avoid protests, demonstrations and political rallies as they may turn violent.
