Israel Revises Advisory Asking Its Nationals To 'Leave Immediately' Kashmir Region


(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) Tel Aviv- Amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, Israel has updated the existing travel advisory for its nationals urging those in the Kashmir region to“leave immediately”.

The revised advisory came on Wednesday after the Indian military carried out strikes against terror targets in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Pakistan's Punjab province earlier in the day. Pakistan army carried out one of the most intense artillery and mortar shelling in years targeting forward villages along the LoC in Jammu and Kashmir.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry called on Israelis to avoid visiting the Jammu and Kashmir region, with the exception of Ladakh.

Israelis currently in Kashmir should“leave immediately” and obey the instructions of local security forces, the ministry said.

This is in line with the existing travel advisory issued by the National Security Council, it added.
