Here is today’s daily update regarding the supply chain status in Israel:

Despite the closure of Israeli airspace, we are offering our customers alternative import and export solutions for urgent shipments.
These solutions are based on limited cargo flight options, as well as sea routes to and from Greece or Cyprus, with onward air transport to and from global destinations.
For more information, please contact our teams, who are always at your service.
