Airlines and governments are working to evacuate visitors trapped in Israel and Gaza as the conflict between Israel and Hamas continues. Many flights to Tel Aviv have been canceled, disrupting Israel's travel industry, which is a significant part of the country's economy. Other nations, such as Brazil and the UK, are arranging flights to repatriate their citizens. The US is working to evacuate approximately 400-600 American citizens, while the State Department has issued travel warnings for Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. The impact on Israel's tourism industry remains uncertain, but organizations like Birthright Israel are determined to resume trips once the conflict subsides.
