Mashgichim in Turkey Warned Against Dressing as Jews

The Eidah is taking no chances, they gave the Mashgichim they send to Turkey to oversee the production of pasta a list of safety instructions.

“The Masgiach must be accompanied by security from his lodgings to the factory. He may not be outside except when traveling between his lodgings and the factory. He may not go to a Beit Knesset or market. He may not daven in public or dress in an obviously Jewish fashion. He should wear non-descript clothing, and be careful not to be heard speaking Hebrew in public. “

It also stipulates that Mashgichim should not be pressured to travel to Turkey- only those who are comfortable working there should go.

Both Israel and America have issued serious travel warnings regarding travel to Turkey. The American Embassy has issued a warning, stating that there is real and actual threat of further attacks in the immediate future. Jewish sites are considered to be at the top of the target list of sites, which also includes tourist attractions and crowded areas.
