Two charter flights leave Israel as part of UK Governments plan to get Brits out
Two charter flights have now left Israel, as part of a UK Government effort to get British nationals out of the country amid the escalating conflict in the region.
One flight was a commercial charter flight, while an RAF A400M transport plane was also used. It is expected that the Ministry of Defence will continue to play a role in supporting the Foreign Office in the charter effort. "Two charter flights have now left Israel and we expect more to leave in the coming days. It's more important than ever that you follow our travel advice and register your presence."
A UK-organised flight was originally planned to arrive at Gatwick Airport on Friday, but that was cancelled amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.PA understands one of the reasons for the lack of flights is that Titan Airways, the contracted airline, was having difficulties arranging insurance.
