flag Israel barred from Italy’s 2025 travel fair over war-zone tourism concerns.

flag Israel has been barred from the TTG Travel Experience 2025 in Rimini, Italy, due to security concerns and ethical objections over promoting tourism in war-affected areas amid the Gaza conflict. flag Organizers and local authorities cited risks of protests, public unrest, and the humanitarian crisis, calling it inappropriate to market war zones as destinations. flag The decision, supported by Rimini’s mayor and regional officials, was communicated by the Italian Exhibition Group, which stated participation conditions no longer exist. flag Israeli officials condemned the move as politically motivated, claiming it damages bilateral ties and may fuel antisemitism, while noting strong tourism links between the two nations. flag Italy’s tourism minister and other officials have expressed disapproval, and alternative participation avenues are being explored.
