Israel Issues Drastic Travel Rules

READ UPDATED INFORMATION HERE and HERE

As per yesterday’s update, the entry of foreigners from the UK, Denmark and South Africa was stopped suddenly and indefinitely.

Today, after countless hours of discussion, the Israeli Corona Cabinet has finally come to some definitive conclusions regarding the entry of flights to Israel, for Israeli citizens and for foreigners.

Here is what has been decided:

  • Foreigners from all countries are immediately banned from entering Israel. This includes those who have already received entry permits, and is effective immediately. Chaim V’Chessed has learned that even those who manage to board flights to Israel will be barred from entering, and will be returned to their countries of origin.
  • Entry permits will not be granted at this time for students, or those coming for simchas or medical emergencies. We are seeking clarification regarding travelers coming for funerals.
  • As of Wednesday, December 23rd at 2 pm, Israeli citizens returning from all countries will be required to quarantine in government hotels for 10 days (after performing 2 Covid tests) or for 14 days (without testing).
  • Israeli citizens entering Israel in the next 48 hours will require home quarantine and will be guided towards Corona testing in their neighborhood within 48 hours. Quarantine will last for 10 days after two negative tests and for 14 days with no testing.
  • Anyone found positive for Covid amongst those returning from abroad – from any country – will require quarantine in a government-run hotel.

The above decision will stay in effect for the next 10 days, with an option for extension.

Hi (NAME)  How you doing? I’m helping out with a campaign for an organization here in Israel that really means a lot to me, I’ve actually been helped personally by this organization – when (INSERT PERSONAL STORY?!) which is why I agreed to help them raise funds so they continue their important work. The organization is called Chaim V’Chessed. Maybe you’ve heard of them. They help English-speakers in Israel, whether tourists or residents, to navigate all kinds of challenges and crises. They help with travel, medical, educational and bureaucratic crises. They are literally lifesavers. You can imagine how busy they have been since the war broke out, and how many crises they have been helping with. Here’s a short video to give you an idea of what they’ve been doing. If you are able to support them, it would mean so much to me!! I know there really are a lot of great causes out there, but if you can help me out with this cause, I’d really appreciate. Here’s the link to my page. Thank you, thank you!!!
