A spokesperson for the airline said: “As a result of the continued evolving situation in Israel, easyJet has now taken the decision to suspend its flights to Tel Aviv for the remainder of the summer season.”

They added: “Customers booked to fly on this route up to this date are being offered options, including a full refund.”
