Israeli authorities on Friday blocked two Irish nationals from entering 1948 Occupied Palestine over alleged “plans to disrupt security forces”.
The Israeli immigration authorities barred the entry of the two Irish nationals who headed a group of 27 others from Ireland into Israel as tourists. The authorities claimed they interrogated them but they did not reveal the real reason for their arrival and they allegedly had other plans for their entry.
The rest of the group were allowed to enter after the two leaders were returned to their country.
According to Haaretz newspaper the two were previously denied entry into Israel for their participation in solidarity events with the Palestinian people.
