What is the situation in Israel today?
Tell me who has recently traveled or perhaps is going to go to Israel, what is their situation there and are there riots like their Egyptian neighbors? Today we watched the news about Egypt, we were very wary, suddenly the Israelis are also fighting in full. We are planning a trip in October, but not with such zeal, especially since I don’t need extreme sports now. In general, who knows what, respond. Thank you in advance!

Don't be afraid of anything.
I have yet to see a safer and friendlier country than Israel. Avoid only visiting Muslim neighborhoods in the evening and behave with caution in the Palestinian Authority.
In Israel itself, especially in Jerusalem, there are friendly and helpful people, and the streets are exceptionally safe at any time. There can be no unrest there, and the army of this small state is one of the most combat-ready and powerful in the world.
Have a nice rest!

Recently a friend came from there. I lived in Jerusalem for a week, often went everywhere by myself (city, supermarket, Holy places, etc.), traveled with a group to tourist places (Dead Sea, Tel Aviv, etc.). Was satisfied. Everything is fine. The main thing is to be careful about autonomy. Good luck!

Our actions will not affect Israel, even in the resort areas, nothing affects the situation.

I agree with what was said above. There were no problems like the Egyptian ones in Israel and never will be. The inhabitants of Israel - both Jews and non-Jews (Arabs, Bedouins, Druze, Russians, Ukrainians ...) - have something to do. Therefore, there is no need to be afraid of riots!

Yesterday, at 22:00 Moscow time, the situation was completely calm, the heat was above 30 degrees.

sorry, I didn’t read your entire question, I don’t have to think ahead now, October is still far away ...

I can only add that last year during the bombing of Israel, none of the tourists and my friends and their acquaintances living there were injured
аватар Alex_classic
There have been no bombings of Israel since the War of Independence, i.e. 65 years ago. After the Israeli Air Force became the best in the Middle East, there were NO large-scale air raids and, I hope, never will be again!
What has been happening over the past 10-15 years is a border conflict. The epicenter of events - the Gaza Strip, located in the South-West of Israel, on the border with Egypt. Evil comes from it in all directions - and Egypt gets it, and Israel. Last November there was an antiterrorist operation in Gaza. The terrorists were "ironed" from the air, and in response they fired short-range and medium-range missiles. The people of Ashkelon and Ashdod were in no mood for jokes. It even reached Rishon LeZion... It's very sad, but it has NOTHING TO do with Ms. bileg's extremely careless statement.
The only thing that is written correctly is that the tourists were not affected in any way. Not then, not before.
Tourist routes run at a fairly large distance from Gaza, so there is no reason to worry!

Hooray for the rich Russian language! They softened my statement with the words "ironed" and shot, the meaning did not change, and the toilets in Bat Yam have already been replaced from "medium-range missile bullets that fell near residential areas." I'm not going to scare anyone, thank God I think this will not happen today, and the Iron Dome works for the Jews!

Nataly, please don't mind our sweet skirmish with Alex Сlassic, in my opinion, we are talking about the same thing. You should not be afraid, I personally have not met a more peaceful country. Last November, a friend of mine came to Israel to visit my friend, all trips around the country went off with a bang. Alex is right, the tour routes are really far from the village. Gases.

Thank you for such informative feedback. :) And your arguments are even for me +, when I read so many interesting things for myself, I also realized that I have absolutely no information :) A little closer to the point, I will plan a route for visiting holy places, I will definitely contact you, but this is already in a different topic :))
аватар bileg
Write in a personal, I travel to Israel on my own, if something interests you, I will try to help.

What kind of "brawl"? More constructive dialogue :)
Another clarification on the topic. He used the word "ironed" in relation to places of mass concentration of terrorists in Gaza. And this is not Israel. This is the most densely populated place on Earth. Not only Israel suffers from the terrorists located there, but also the local residents of Gaza, and Egypt (it is against them that the actions of the Egyptian police and the army are directed, it was they who recently inflicted great damage on the Egyptians ...).
When you move on to the specifics, I recommend that you make a route based on the most popular sightseeing tours "Getting to know Israel" and "Across the Holy Land". The programs can be found here:
As you decide on the route, then choose a reliable tour operator. This can be helped both by the recommendations of friends / relatives, and the information on the website of the Ministry of Tourism of Israel. Here is a link to the official site - http://goisrael.ru/Rus/Pages/default.aspx

After receiving an offer from the tour operator of your choice, compare with the option of an independent trip, and then decide what suits you.
It is important to understand that when buying a tour (in whole or in part) in your city/country, you are more protected than if you do something yourself and pay for intermediaries located abroad (all kinds of bookings are just virtual intermediaries).
The exception is air travel. If not a charter flight to Eilat (a / p Ovda), then it is better to buy it yourself on the Internet (there will be no service fees and the ticket will be in your hands immediately after payment!). You can check the cost on one of the specialized sites. Personally, I like http://www.momondo.ru
And it is better to buy on the websites of the airlines themselves!

I forgot to provide a link to the programs "Introducing Israel" and "In the Holy Land" :(

August 14th flight to Israel in Ein Bokek, but I would like to visit Jerusalem, can anyone know how it is now? I strongly doubt it. Tell me please.
аватар Alex_classic
Tel Aviv and Netanya have beautiful weather. It's a little hot, so you're always looking for shade...
Whatever happens in Gaza, everything will be quiet and calm in Ein Bokek on the Dead Sea! And you can go to Jerusalem.

She stayed in Tel Aviv at the height of the shelling. Every day she went to the sea, went to Jerusalem herself, to the Dead Sea, walked around the city. I had to hide in a shelter during an alarm. There was no fear.

Terrible review of a trip to Israel on December 2, 2018 through "Coral travel" represented by Tez Tour.
Good afternoon! You may not be able to believe it, but we must raise the issue. Tonight, the girls who were morally bullied and mocked by Israeli customs officers returned. It’s a pity there is no photo because everything was taken away, but the idea that bread is thrown into the cage on the floor and filmed on the phone is simply amazing. These are claims for a lawsuit, but as the lawyers said, such cases have not been raised even once for so long, the tour operators are evading responsibility. Why are Russian tourists with a tour package in their arms humiliated and insulted, why do they pay 100,000 rubles for a vacation and sleep on the cold floor by the toilet? Why are Russian mothers with one-year-old children put in cells? Why don't they give water, food and Coral Travel tour operator refuses to inform tourists before going on vacation! It is necessary to inform everyone who wants to travel to Israel how it really is. Thanks for understanding.

I have repeatedly been to Israel, and no one has thrown me into a cell. Maybe I'm not like that?
