All Israel Embassies Worldwide Closed

ISRAEL EMBASSY SHUTS DOWN

All Israel Embassies worldwide are closed effective immediately.  The following statement was issued via twitter.

Due to the decision of the Ministry of Finance to breach  understandings and to alter a protocol that has been in place for several decades, we are forced to close our Embassy. No consular services will be provided and no one will be allowed to enter. Israeli diplomats are committed at all times to strive to enhance Israel’s strength and resilience. Unfortunately, the decision of the MOF does not leave us any choice, since the vital interests of Israel have been harmed. We hope for prompt  solving of this crisis.
