Times of Israel reports that the Israeli Health Ministry is warning of a potential measles outbreak among people who returned from the annual visit to the Ukrainian city of Uman for Rosh Hashanah.
The ministry says passengers traveling to Israel on three flights on September 12 were confirmed to have the measles, and warned that passengers on those flights were at risk of contracting the disease. The statement said passengers on Ukrainian Airways flights PS101 and 779 and KLM flight 461 should see a doctor immediately.
