Foreign Office now advises against all travel to Israel

The Foreign Office (FCDO) has issued another update for Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories, advising against all travel to the destinations.

The advice, issued on Sunday 15 June, replaces a previous update two days earlier, when the FCDO advised against all but essential travel.

The FCDO said: “Iran has launched multiple rounds of missile and drone attacks against Israel. On 13 June a nationwide state of emergency was declared in Israel. This followed Israeli strikes against nuclear and military facilities in Iran. Israeli airspace remains closed. 

“We recognise this is a fast-moving situation that poses significant risks. The situation has the potential to deteriorate further, quickly and without warning. The current situation has disrupted air links out of the country and may disrupt road links. We encourage you to read the FCDO’s advice on if you’re affected by a crisis abroad.”

Meanwhile, Israeli airline EL AL and its subsidiary, Sundor, have cancelled their entire flight schedules through to Thursday, 19 June.

In addition, flights for the two airlines scheduled to depart up to and including 30 June 2025 are closed for new bookings.
