Diplomatic relations between the United Arab Emirates and Israel were almost non-existent in the past until last year when both countries signed an agreement mediated by the President Of The United States, Donald Trump.
As per the deal, both countries have mutually agreed to begin a new journey and normalize their diplomatic relations which are expected to support the businesses, trade, and tourism of both countries.
The agreement was named the Abraham Accord which was formulated by government officials of both countries with the United States acting as a mediator before it was formally signed in August 2020.
Considering the importance of the United Arab Emirates, not only in the Middle East but in the world, this news came as a major shock especially from its Muslim-majority countries & allies who are against the prosecution and oppression of the Palestinians by the Israeli Government who have had bitter relations and have fought countless wars as a reaction to the brutalities inflicted by the Israeli military forces and bureaucracy.
As per reports, Certain Israeli Tourists Who Have Started Visiting The United Arab Emirates Have Been Stealing From The Hotel
As a result of this diplomatic deal between the two governments, a lot of Israelis have visited the country in the past few months. As per reports, a significant number of tourists who have come from Israel have been robbing the hotels and stealing their valuables, something that was not occurring too often in the hotels of the United Arab Emirates which is one of the most famous tourists hotspots in Asia.

Some have taken it to the next level by criticizing the agreement between the two countries, referring to Israelis as Zionist occupiers who have earlier robbed the Palestinians off their homes and are now robbing the hotels of Dubai.
The outcome of the "#normalization" with Zionists!

Middle East Monitor also reported several hotel officials complaining about the behavior of certain tourists who have arrived at Dubai from Israel in the past few months, reporting many of the valuables and appliances getting stolen and even catching a few of the tourists sneaking out of the hotels with their appliances while checking-out.
It is also important to note that due to the pandemic, the flight fares and hotel charges have reduced drastically. Many people have taken leverage of this time and are opting for vacations, taking full advantage of the low prices and costs of tourism however, it is extremely shameful to not be considerate of the host country, their employees, and their culture when one is visiting their country as a tourist.
