An American delegation is expected to arrive in Israel in the coming days to examine whether Israel is complying with requirements tied to its participation in the U.S. Visa Waiver Program, following the serious security failures exposed by the attempted terror attack aboard a flydubai flight to Tel Aviv.

According to initial reports, the delegation is arriving to review protocols and ensure strict adherence to international screening standards required under the entry agreement. The development raises potential concerns regarding the continuation of streamlined travel arrangements for passport holders relying on the ESTA system.
