According to a report by The Jerusalem Post, the Israeli security agency has assessed that the risk of attacks on Israelis worldwide has increased due to Israel's ongoing conflicts with Iran, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the Palestinian armed group Hamas.

It was also warned that large protests may take place in various countries around the third anniversary of the Hamas attack in October 2026. The agency expressed concern that some of these protests could turn violent against Israelis.

In the warning, several countries around Iran were specifically mentioned as particularly risky for Israelis. These include Azerbaijan, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates. Jordan, Qatar, Somaliland, and Egypt were also listed as risky.

It was also stated that travel by Israelis to Iraq, Kurdistan, Yemen, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and Saudi Arabia is legally prohibited. This restriction also applies to dual citizens, it was noted.

Additionally, Israel's National Security Council advised against traveling to Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Libya, Algeria, and Somalia, mentioning them as risky countries for Israelis.
