Fourteen Israel tour participants from Bnei Akiva have been sent home for “serious breaches of our code of conduct”. The movement would not provide details of the breaches but said the expulsions involved “two separate cases”.
A Bnei Akiva representative said that “occurrences of this nature are extremely rare and these decisions were taken as a matter of last resort. However, we have a duty of care to all participants, whose safety and well-being is always our priority.”
