85 (TLV-EWR) canceled because there's no plane.
84 (EWR-TLV) which is supposed to take off in 6 hours is still showing as on schedule. I am pessimistic about it actually flying.

Currently flying to/from TLV:
LY - PS - SU - R3 - 6H - U6 - IZ

BA is not flying? Interesting that the Russian airlines are the ones who continue flying.
