A group of Jewish children in Valencia, Spain, was removed from a plane for allegedly disturbing other passengers.
JEWISH CHILDREN REMOVED FROM THE PLANE
Israel's Minister of Diaspora Affairs, Amichai Chikli, claimed in a post on X that a woman was forcibly detained. Chikli alleged that 50 French citizen Jewish children, aged between 10 and 15, were removed from the plane "just for singing songs in Hebrew."
Chikli argued that the flight crew removed the children by stating that "Israel is a terrorist state," claiming the incident was an act of "anti-Semitism." Reports in the local press suggested that the 21-year-old leader of the group, which was allegedly singing "racist and Hebrew songs loudly and causing a disturbance," was detained.
Posts on social media regarding the incident indicated that the group was singing songs containing racist and hate speech.
