Israel cautions citizens attending the World Cup in Qatar and sends low-key consuls

Israel has urged its citizens to be cautious while in Qatar, the Arab host country that does not officially recognize it but has welcomed a team of its diplomats to Doha to provide assistance.
Between 10,000 and 20,000 Israelis are expected to attend the soccer tournament, which begins on Sunday, with some traveling on as-yet unfinalized direct flights from Tel Aviv that Qatar said it would permit for the event.
An Israeli diplomat said on Thursday that in another measure of new normalcy between the countries, the Israelis coming for the World Cup have been given temporary visas. Alon Lavi, the diplomat, is the spokesperson for a consular team that he said was based in a Doha hotel and whose duties included advising Israelis to be especially cautious about obeying local laws and avoiding conflict with rival fans.
