Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has ordered the immediate expulsion of all Israeli citizens from the country, according to reports. The directive marks a significant escalation in Malaysia's anti-Israel policy.
Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has ordered the immediate expulsion of all Israeli citizens from the country, according to reports received Sunday evening. The directive, if confirmed, would represent a sharp escalation from previous measures: earlier this month, as The Zioneer reported, Malaysia threatened to deport Israelis from a tech startup hub and froze a $117 million expansion plan. The new order reportedly applies to all Israelis nationwide, though it remains unclear how it will be enforced or whether it covers tourists, businesspeople, or dual nationals. The announcement comes amid a broader pattern of anti-Israel rhetoric from the Malaysian government, which has no formal diplomatic relations with Israel. The report has not yet been independently corroborated.
