1 min read571
The Maldives has officially banned Israeli citizens from entering the country, reports Korrespondent.net, citing Reuters.
On April 16, President Mohamed Muizzu ratified changes to the immigration law following parliamentary approval. The move comes in response to what the government described as “ongoing atrocities and acts of genocide by Israel against the Palestinian people” during the Gaza conflict.
The president's office stated that this decision reflects the Maldives' strong stance in support of Palestine.
Meanwhile, Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs advised its citizens to avoid traveling to the Maldives, and those already there to consider leaving due to limited availability of consular assistance.
