Increased Security Alert for Israelis at Thailand's Full Moon Party
Potential threat against Israelis prompts vigilance warning
Israeli authorities have urged their citizens in Thailand to exercise heightened caution amid reports of a possible terror threat at the Full Moon Party on Koh Phangan in Surat Thani.
The alert, issued by the Mossad and the National Security Council, follows a Thai police report warning of a potential attack targeting Israelis during the event.
The popular party attracts numerous young Israeli tourists.
The alert remains unchanged despite increased security measures and cooperation between Israeli and Thai security forces to prevent incidents.
The National Security Council emphasizes that since October 7, amidst the Gaza conflict, threats against Israeli and Jewish targets have intensified.
Israelis in Thailand are advised to stay alert, avoid large gatherings associated with their nationality, and refrain from openly displaying Israeli symbols.
