Air France has excluded its flight crew members of Algerian nationality, including those with French nationality, from flights to Tel-Aviv. This action follows an injunction from Israel requiring the exclusion of crew from 31 countries on flights to the State of Israel. The airline transmitted an internal note relaying the directive from the Israeli Ministry of Transport.
