sKs Kashrus Says No More Food from Egypt; Too Dangerous

kosher1.gifRabbi David Moskowitz heads the sKs Shatz kashrus supervision, which until recently did business in Egypt. The rav announced last week that as a result of the anarchy in that country, he cannot send mashgichim as in the past without fear for the lives. Hence he has stopped providing kosher supervision for items which in the past were exported from Egypt.

The rabbi is quoted telling Arutz-7 News that if and when the situation calms down in Egypt, he will reconsider sending mashgichim to that country.

    Not “recommended” by mainstream acceptable kashrus agencies.

    The mashgiach for the OU in Egypt recently returned from a trip so for the meantime they continue to maintain their hashgacha. (which I understand is mostly on frozen vegetables)
