Mauritius

A report says Mauritius on Saturday denied landing clearance to a scheduled flight from Israel. The refusal was reportedly based on political and diplomatic considerations, and linked to the absence of the Mauritian delegation during Benjamin Netanyahu's address at the United Nations General Assembly. The move is being read as a sign of diplomatic friction between the two countries amid the ongoing Gaza conflict.

An Israeli travel group says a direct flight to Mauritius was refused landing permission, which it attributes to political reasons. The claim, reported by The Times of Israel, has drawn attention to Mauritius's handling of Israeli flights amid tensions over the Gaza war, though Mauritian authorities have not yet publicly responded to the allegation.
