New Delhi: The Maldives has banned Israelis from visiting its famous idyllic beaches in response to the conflict in Gaza. In response, Israel advised its citizens to avoid travelling to the island nation and recommended that those already in the country consider leaving.
Amid these tensions, the Israeli Embassy’s X page is showing gorgeous photographs of Indian beaches, from Goa to Kerala. They’re urging their citizens to ditch the Maldives and head to beach destinations in India instead.
“Since the Maldives is no longer welcoming Israelis, here are some beautiful and amazing Indian beaches where Israeli tourists are warmly welcomed and treated with utmost hospitality,” the Embassy of Israel tweeted on Monday.
The Israeli Embassy also posted a photo of a beach in Lakshadweep.
The decision to ban Israeli passport holders from entering the country appears to have been triggered by public anger over the ongoing conflict in Gaza and growing pressure from opposition parties, according to India Today.
President Mohamed Muizzu has established a subcommittee to oversee the ban’s implementation. The Palestinian people have also launched a national fundraising campaign called “Maldivians in Solidarity with Palestine.”
