Dear Customers,

 

Due to the current security situation and the operation of the Israeli economy under emergency conditions, we are providing ongoing updates regarding the status of supply chain operations in Israel.

 

DSV is operating at full capacity, and we continue to provide ongoing support while offering alternative solutions in view of frequent constraints and changes, including airspace restrictions.

 

We remain at your disposal for any questions and will continue to provide updates as the situation evolves.

 

Best regards,
