Summary
Following the invasion of Kuwait, Saddam Hussein publicly promised that if Baghdad was attacked, then Tel Aviv would be also. Despite a French diplomatic initiative to avert war, many airlines stopped flying to Tel Aviv or operated a reduced service. There was an exodus of foreign nationals from Israel and foreign embassies moved their headquarters out of Tel Aviv. El Al continued to fly normally and Soviet Jews arrived on Malev flights, whose charter aircraft had been hired by the Jewish Agency.
