Please find the assessment at this link: Gaza Logistics Assessment (12/23)

Seaports

The Port of Ashdod - just 40 km from Tel Aviv, it is the closest to the country's major commercial centres and highways. Ashdod Port has been operating since 1965 and is one of the few ports in the world built on open sea.

The Port of Haifa - the Port of Haifa is the largest of Israel's three major international seaports, which include the Port of Ashdod, and the Port of Eilat. It has a natural deep-water harbour which operates all year long and serves both passenger and cargo ships. The Port of Haifa lies to the north of Haifa's Downtown quarter at the Mediterranean and stretches to some 3 km along the city's central shore with activities ranging from military, industrial and commercial aside to a nowadays passenger cruising facility. 

The Port of Eilat - the Port of Eilat is the only Israeli port on the Red Sea, located at the northern tip of the Gulf of Aqaba. It has significant economic and strategic importance. The Port of Eilat was opened in 1957 and is today mainly used for trading with Far East countries as it allows Israeli shipping to reach the Indian Ocean without having to sail through the Suez Canal.

International airports

There are two international airports operational in Israel, managed by the Israel Airports Authority. Ben Gurion Airport serves as the main entrance and exit airport in and out of Israel. Ramon Airport being the second largest airport serves as the primary diversion airport for Ben Gurion Airport.

Road and Rail Transport

Roads - Transportation in Israel is based mainly on private motor vehicles and bus service and an expanding railway network. All facets of transportation in Israel are under the supervision of the Ministry of Transport and Road Safety.

Israel's road network spans 18,096 km (11,244 mi) of roads of which 449 km (279 mi) are classified as freeways. The network spans the whole country.

Route 6, the Trans Israel Highway, starts just east of Haifa down to the outskirts of Beer Sheva, about 200 km (120 mi). Route 1 between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and Route 2 between Tel Aviv and Haifa are well maintained highways.

Rail - Israel Railways corporation Ltd., dba Israel Railways, is the state-owned principal railway company responsible for all inter-city, commuter, and freight rail transport in Israel. All its lines are standard gauge. 

Light rail/subway- The 13-kilometre-long Jerusalem Light Rail system began operation in August 2011 and is being extended. The construction of the Tel Aviv Light Rail and the Tel Aviv Metro, serving Tel Aviv and surrounding cities, in underway and the first line, the Red Line, is set to open in 2023.[12] A significant portion of it will be underground.

Haifa's Carmelit, an underground funicular railway, is currently the only subway line in Israel. It is listed in Guinness World Records as the shortest subway system in the world, being the second smallest track network (after the Tünel in Istanbul,) but being the smallest "system" by virtue of being the only urban rail network in the city. The Haifa–Nazareth railway, a planned light rail system from Haifa to Nazareth, is planned to open in 2025, and a light rail system in Beersheba is currently planned.

Beginning in the mid-1960s, railway development stagnated, and a number of lines (notably, the Jezreel Valley railway and most of the Eastern railway) were abandoned altogether. Development restarted in the 1990s, the opening of Tel Aviv's Ayalon railway in 1993 signaling a new era of rail development. Lines include the high-speed railway to Jerusalem, an extension of the coastal railway directly from Tel Aviv to Ashdod through the north and a line from Ashkelon to Beersheba via Sderot, Netivot and Ofakim, as well as a complete reconstruction of the line from Lod to Beersheba. These and other extensive infrastructure improvements led to a 20-fold increase in the number of passengers served by Israel Railways between 1990 and 2021.

Excluding light rail, the network consists of 1,384 km (860 mi) of track and is undergoing constant expansion. All the lines are standard gauge and as of 2016 the heavy rail network is in the initial stages of an electrification programme. 

The government of Israel, believing that freight rail transport in the country is underutilized, particularly with respect to container transport, has set a goal of doubling the amount of freight transported by rail by the middle of the 2010s decade and tripling it by the end of the decade. Its plan calls for an upgrade of the freight transport infrastructure, including more freight terminals, new or renewed sidings to factories and other customers, and the purchase of additional freight locomotives and freight cars. From an administrative perspective, Israel Railways' freight division will be spun off into a separate subsidiary, which will be 51% privately owned by a strategic partner committed to maximizing the railway's freight transport potential. The new subsidiary will be allowed to partner directly with other transport providers in the private sector to offer customers more cost-effective, flexible and complete transport and logistical solutions than those currently offered by Israel Railways.

GRAIN AND BULK HANDLING

The grain conveyance piers serve the "Dagon" Israel Granaries Company.

Grain is moved by three unloaders which convey the grain directly to the storage silos. "Dagon" Granaries have a nominal capacity of 90,000 tons and are used for the unloading, storage and onward transportation of grain by train and truck. 

The granaries are managed and operated by the "Dagon" Israel Granaries Company Ltd. and owned by the Israel Port Authority.

Three mobile unloaders, two pneumatic and one mechanical, operate on the quay where water depth reaches 13.3m. They unload grain from ships and transfer it to the grain silo by a usage of conveyer belts installed inside concrete bridges that stretch over the Port. The three unloaders have an operational capacity of approximately 1,800 tons per hour. The mechanical unloader was built locally according to an Israeli development which has since been patented in most of the world's industrialized countries and which has a capacity of some 1,200 tons per hour. The pneumatic unloaders are new and each one has an unloading capacity of some 600 tons per hour.
Stored grain is loaded onto railcars and trucks at a rate of up to 15,000 tons a day.

The silos operate 24 hours a day except for the Sabbath and religious holidays.

State of Palestine - 2.1.3 Port of Eilat (Israel)

Port Overview

The Port of Eilat is the only Israeli port on the Red Sea, located at the northern tip of the Gulf of Aqaba.

The Port of Eilat was opened in 1947 and is today mainly used for trading with Far East countries. It allows Israeli shipping to reach the Indian Ocean without having to sail through the Suez Canal.

Ship traffic at Eilat is relatively low (compared to Israel's two large seaports on the Mediterranean). One reason is that Eilat is situated at a considerable distance from the center of the country. Another is the fact that unlike the country's other main seaports, Eilat's is yet to be served by a railway line (the nearest railhead is located 180km to the north).

The port of Eilat is mainly used for the import of vehicles from the far east.

Key airport information may also be found at: World AeroData

The main airport for Israel is Tel Aviv- Ben Gurion Airport, Ben Gurion Airport, commonly known by its Hebrew acronym as Natbag, is the main international airport of Israel and the busiest airport in the country, located on the northern outskirts of the city of Lod, which is about 45 km northwest of Jerusalem and 20 km to the southeast of Tel Aviv.

Another international airport, Eilat’s new Ramon Airport has officially opened just 18 km north of the city Eilat as of January 21, 2019. The new Ramon Airport has replaced the two existing airports in Eilat, Eilat City Airport and Ovda Airport, and creates a new international gateway to Southern Israel and the Red Sea. The Ramon Airport is expected to handle up to 2 million passengers a year upon opening with expansion allowing capacity of up to 4.2 million passengers by the year 2030. All domestic flights to the old Eilat City Airport from Tel Aviv and Haifa have now moved to the new Eilat Ramon Airport, whilst the airport will also begin handling low-cost and charter flights from Europe which previously arrived to Ovda Airport.

There are several small airports all over Israel – Rosh Pina, Haifa and Herzelia. Also, in the past there was an airport to the north of Jerusalem which called Qalandia Airport, which was closed from a long time ago and now the plan is to change the area into an Industrial Zone Area. Also, all over Israel there are roads that can be used as an airport during the emergencies.

Airport Overview

The airport has evolved and prospered ever since, with passenger and air traffic figures constantly rising. In the 1990s the IAA recognised the fact that the old Terminal 1 was no longer capable of handling the increasing passenger traffic, and a joint decision was made with the Minister of Transport to build a new terminal with higher capacity - Terminal 3. The Airport has two main terminals: Terminal 3 for international flights and Terminal 1 for domestic and low-cost international flights. 

Ben Gurion Airport is a modern airport, equipped with state-of-the-art technological installations and operational facilities that meet international standards. The Airport is accessible to disabled passengers and provides passenger service and special VIP services. The safety and security measures implemented at the Airport meet the highest global standards and air traffic safety is top priority.

2.4 Palestine Railway Assessment (Israel)

For railway contacts, please see the following link:  4.1 Palestine Government Contact List

There is no rail network in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Israel Railways (Hebrew: רכבת ישראל "Rakévet Yisraél") is Israel's government-owned national railway company and is responsible for all inter-city and suburban railway passenger and freight traffic in the country. It utilises the standard gauge in all its lines.  The network is centred on the coastal plain from where lines radiate out from Tel Aviv in many directions.

Israel Railways divides its routes into several operational lines:

Inter-City Service: Nahariya - Haifa - Tel Aviv - Ben Gurion Airport - Lod - Be'er Sheva
Suburban Service: Haifa - Qiryat Motzkin
Suburban Service: Binyamina/Netanya - Tel Aviv - Rehovot
Suburban Service: Kefar Sava - Tel Aviv - Jerusalem/HaRishonim
Suburban Service: Be'er Sheva Tzafon (North) - Dimona
Suburban Service: Hod Hasharon - Tel Aviv - Rishon Le Zion
Suburban Service: Binyamina - Tel Aviv - Ashdod - Asheklon

The line from the Jerusalem Central Bus Station was extended so that it will connect with the historic (now upgraded) railroad that already reaches Southern Jerusalem. The ride on the new high-speed line from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem will take 28 minutes.

The activities of the cargo division in Israel Railways focuses on the transportation of cargo where transportation by train has significant advantages: containers, minerals, phosphates, hazardous materials, grains and waste. The transportation of cargo is carried out using cars of different types: flat modular car for carrying 20 ft and 40 ft containers, closed car for transporting bulk, aggregates and minerals, and a tanker car for carrying liquids. The area of activities of the cargo division in Israel Railways spans from the Dead Sea Works in Tsefa / Rotem / Nahal Zinn / Oron and Ramat Hovav in the south and up to Haifa in the north. The cargo terminals are located in strategic areas near centers of activity such as Tsefa, Ramat Hovav, the Port of Ashdod, Bnei Brak, Hadera west and ICL fertilizers in Haifa.

Operational Sites for Routine Operations:

Haifa transportation center -  Operating cargo trains between Haifa and factories in the north as well as the southern stations.
Ashdod/Lod transportation center -  Operating cargo trains between Ashdod and Haifa and from Ashdod to the south.
Ashdod port -  There are three private terminals in the Ashdod port which have a track junction with the railway tracks. The terminals are:
- Overseas terminals -  Conterm terminal and Marine containers terminal
- Dimona transportation center -  Operating cargo trains from the southern stations Nahal Zinn, Tsefa and Oron to Ashdod and Haifa and between the Zinn factory and Tsefa. In addition to the transportation centers at the stations Beer-Sheva, Bnei-Brak and Binyamina.

Proposed rail lines to the PNA:

Recent talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority have raised the possibility of reviving the old line from the Gaza Strip to Tulkarm and/or building a new line from Gaza to Tarkumia (near Hebron). The purpose is to securely transport people and goods between Gaza and the West Bank through sovereign Israeli territory as well as for transporting cargo to and from the Israeli port of Ashdod destined to the PA. Another proposed line would involve the revival of the old Hejaz railway branch from Afula to Jenin. Most of the transportation activities focus on transportation of the following: phosphates, potassium, coal, nuclear substances, gravel, containers, phosphoric acid, sulfur and crude oil. The Israel Railway serves as an overland bridge between the ports of Haifa and Ashdod

The current and future plans for Israel Railways divide its passenger routes into eight operational lines - see website for details.
