Against the backdrop of the suspension of Flydubai flights to Israel and the lack of security clearance for Israeli airlines to land in the United Arab Emirates, concerns are now also rising regarding the future of flights to Morocco. According to senior sources in the aviation industry, the Shin Bet has identified a new security threat in Morocco, and the matter is under review by security officials. The route to Morocco was resumed about two months ago, a day before the surprise strike at Ben Gurion Airport last August, and now the question arises again whether Israeli passengers will be able to continue flying to the destination as usual. The aviation industry is monitoring developments and awaiting clarifications. At this stage, no final decision has been made regarding the continuation of flights to Morocco.
