Israel’s Transportation Minister Miri Regev has appealed to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to intervene in a situation at Ben Gurion Airport involving US refueling aircraft. Currently, 72 American planes are utilizing space at the airport, causing congestion and potentially disrupting civilian flights. Regev warns that without relocating at least 30 of these aircraft, up to 2.4 million summer travelers could face disruptions. The issue centers on the American planes crowding out commercial airlines. The Minister is requesting assistance to find an alternative location for the refueling operations. The situation poses a significant risk to Israel’s peak summer travel season.
