Foreign Office updates its travel advice over 'possibility of attack on Israeli territory from Iran'

The UK has advised its citizens to avoid traveling to Israel and occupied Palestinian territories over the "possibility of an attack on Israeli territory from Iran," Foreign Office said Friday.

In its latest update, the Foreign Office advises against "all travel" to northern Israel, Gaza, areas near Gaza and the West Bank – excluding East Jerusalem and Route 1 between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

It also advised against "all but essential travel" to the rest of Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.

It comes amid fear of a wider conflict in the region especially after seven members of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, including two top generals, were killed in an airstrike on Iran's consulate in Syria.

Iran has accused Israel of carrying out the attack and vowed to respond. Israel, however, has not officially claimed responsibility for the strike. -
