ייתכן שישראל הפרה את תנאי הפטור מוויזה של ארה"ב בשל אי ביצוע בדיקות רקע לצוותי אוויר

הערכה

The Visa Waiver Program's conditions cover air crews, not just passengers, and Israel joined in 2023 on the promise it would meet them. A confirmed failure to run crew background checks puts that commitment in question. The stakes are practical: losing waiver status would force Israeli travelers back into full visa applications. Watch for whether US officials demand fixes or escalate toward suspension.
