Agencies
NEW DELHI, Aug 4: Amid security alert in Jammu and Kashmir, Israel on Sunday issued a travel advisory and asked its citizens to leave the state.
"The National Security Council Counter-Terrorism Bureau reiterates the existing travel warnings for Jammu and Kashmir in northern India, given the intensification of terrorist threats there following - inter alia - the call by the leadership of a major local terrorist organisation to attack Israelis," said an official statement by Israel Prime Minister's Office.
"Therefore, the National Security Council Counter-Terrorism Bureau (NSCCTB) calls on Israeli nationals to avoid visiting the area and for those already there to leave at once. Relatives of Israeli tourists in India are requested to pass along this warning," it added.
The travel alert comes after the Indian government issued an unprecedented advisory asking pilgrims and tourists to "curtail their stay" and "return as soon as possible" after a series of intelligence inputs were received by security agencies over multiple terror attacks on August 2.
The United Kingdom, Germany and Australia have also issued travel advisories strongly discouraging its citizens from travelling to Jammu and Kashmir. |
