Time zones and onot

Question

I live in America and my veset ha Chodesh and Beinonit fall out on shabbos day. I recently traveled to Israel and am unsure if the time difference impacts when I do my bedikah and separate from my husband. If I were in America I would observe the day time on shabbos, does that change now that I traveled to Israel?

Thank you!

Answer

You will disregard the time zone changes and observe your onah as usual on Shabbat day according to local Israel time.
