Report: 50,000 Israelis Stranded as Flights Canceled Ahead of Pesach
By Aryeh Stern
According to a Channel 12 report on Sunday, approximately 50,000 Israelis are facing travel disruptions as their flights have been canceled in recent days, leaving them unable to travel for the upcoming Pesach. Some individuals are also stranded abroad, unable to return home for Yom Tov.
The cancellations come in the wake of Israel’s ongoing war against the Hamas and Iran’s recent attack on the country, leading multiple airlines to suspend or reduce their operations.
