“After hours of waiting Israel denied me entry” MEP Ana Miranda tweeted adding that she was forced to wait from 9 pm until 5 am before she was deported to Madrid.

For her part MEP Grace O’Sullivan tweeted that the Israeli practice is unacceptable pointing out that their colleague Manu Pineda had been denied entry as well.
