Israeli embassy resumes service after temporal shut down

The Embassy of Israel in Ghana has announced that it has resumed full service after a temporal shut down on Wednesday.

According to the Embassy, all 102 countries around the world have been opened for business.

Earlier on Wednesday, October 30, 2019, the Israeli mission in Ghana in a statement indicated that due to the decision of the Israeli Ministry of Finance to breach understandings that were agreed upon and signed by the Director General of the Ministry of Finance on July 21, 2019, “and to apply a one-sided procedure that alters a protocol that has been in place for several decades,” it has suspended all diplomatic activities until further notice.

Shortly after that announcement, the mission released another statement clarifying that despite the strike by its diplomats in Ghana, daily diplomatic activities will be carried out.

In the latest statement issued on Thursday, October 31, 2019, it said that all diplomatic and consular services are fully active and the embassy will soon contact individually all those applying for consular services to resume their process.

The Embassy of Israel to Ghana, Liberia and Sierra Leone is therefore assuring the general public that it is committed to working towards strengthening the already good existing relations between the countries.
