US said discreetly observing treatment of Palestinian-Americans at Israeli border crossings
2023-08-02
So discreet that we’re reading about it in the English-language press.
[IsraelTimes] Observers on behalf of the US government are currently visiting to monitor treatment of Paleostinian-Americans at border crossings, according to Rooters, after travel restrictions on them were eased as part of Israeli efforts to join the US Visa Waiver Program.

Citing four unidentified officials, the report says the observers have toured immigration offices and Ben Gurion Airport , and were scheduled to visit a West Bank crossing today as part of their discreet trip.

[IsraelTimes] US citizens say getting into country much simpler since Israel eased curbs in order to enter Visa Waiver Program; but they fear experience could regress once Israel’s accepted.
