The Security Bureau has lowered the Outbound Travel Alert for Israel to amber in view of the situation there.
It said Hong Kong people who intend to visit the country, or who are already there, should exercise caution, attend to personal safety and avoid protests and large gatherings of people.
They should avoid all travel to Gaza and nearby areas, as well as areas along the Syria and Lebanon borders.
The bureau is monitoring the situation and will issue updates through the media and its website.
Those who need assistance can call the Immigration Department on (852) 1868, or the Chinese Embassy in Israel on (972) 528391282.
