Israel’s National Security Council has warned Israeli citizens against traveling to four countries that hold diplomatic status with Israel: Morocco, Turkey, Jordan, and Egypt.
Following the warning, the council said there had been increasing attempts during the Gaza war by global jihadist organizations to push lone attackers to target Jews and Israelis.
“The likelihood of terrorist threats against Israelis and Jews more than five months after the start of the war is extremely high,” the council said.
This comes in light of escalating tensions between Morocco and Israel as a result of military operations in Gaza, where the number of civilian casualties reached more than 32,000, prompting Morocco to adopt tougher stances towards the conflict, which included a call for the international community to intervene and clear criticism of international ignorance in the face of escalation.
In this context, the head of the Israeli liaison office in Rabat, David Govrin, left for Tel Aviv, in a move that reflects the escalation of differences and tensions between the two countries.
