Link to form that needs to be filled out within 48 hours of flight to Israel

Accordingly, the FINAL criteria For entering Israel are as follows - you must meet ONE of these conditions in order to enter Israel:

1. Vaccinated within 180 days of the trip with either a second vaccine or a booster and it must be at least 14 days after the shot.

2. Recovered within 180 days of the trip with DIGITAL proof of a positive PCR result and more than 11 days have passed since the positive result. This type of proof only exists in the EU. The UK will likely have it as well.

3. Recovered anytime – even more than 180 days before the trip - with DIGITAL proof of positive PCR result AND vaccinated with at least one dose within 180 days of the trip. Again at the moment the digital proof only exists in the EU and possibly the UK shortly.

Your vaccination or recovery CANNOT expire while in Israel, which means you may not be in Israel more than 180 days after your vaccine or recovery have expired.

CONSEQUENCES FOR VIOLATING THE TERMS OF ENTRY: VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE ABOVE CRITERIA CAN MEAN SANCTIONS INCLUDING BARRING YOUR ENTRY TO ISRAEL FOR 5 YEARS.

@ExGingi what's your pshat?
How do contaminated people make it past border control? And how does one find out that they had falsified PCR tests only after they had boarded the plane?  :-X

There's obviously very scant information here, so we can only speculate.

My initial thoughts are that they (possibly one of them) tested positive on a test that was uploaded to MOH and that there was a lag between check-in/passport control and the actual update, and then there might have been an issue with the flight manifest raising a red flag with an updated MOH list. This is pure speculation.

Another possibility might be random spot checks of documentation that revealed something that was מזוייף מתוכו that wasn't initially caught.

I am quite confident that if we had a complete and true picture of what happened (rather than a portrayal by Israeli media who don't tend to be very thorough and accurate on details) it would become obvious how this transpired.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

A vaccinated American citizen Yeshiva Bachur would like to learn in EY after Sukkos.
Can a ticket be booked for him with a stopover, like Virgin Atlantic through LHR?
Is there any issue he may have which he would avoid by flying direct?
Thank you.

The stop over flights are more likely to get cancelled...,Other than that I don't see a difference.

Meaning there are no extra requirements from the country being stopped in?
And no extra requirements from Israel due to having stopped briefly along the way?

דוברות המשטרה (נתב"ג):
משטרת ישראל עצרה בשבוע שעבר תושב בית שמש בן 26 בחשד שסיפק אישורי בדיקת קורונה מזוייפים לבני משפחה שהתייצבה לטיסה בנתב״ג. החוקרים ערכו חיפוש בביתו של החשוד ובמחסן המשמש לו כמשרד, והעבירו את מחשבו לבדיקה. היום שוחרר החשוד למעצר בית והחקירה בעניינו נמשכת.

What happens if an Israeli citizen flies from an Orange country to a Yellow country.  How long do they need to be in the Yellow country to avoid quarantine when going back to Israel?
