Panama deports 3 Israelis arrested in air incident

Panamanian Migrations Vice Director Javier Tapia announced that three of the six young Israelis arrested in Panama last Sunday were deported to their country on Saturday.

The Israelis were detained after a passenger aboard the same plane charged them with shooting a rubber bullet at him with a toygun, Tapia said.

He added that the three young men left the country after they were proved not directly involved in the incident.

The six Israelis, all on vacation, took the flight heading from Peru's Lima to Colombia's Bogota, with a stop in Panama.
