PM speaks to Israeli reps in Cairo overnight

None

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke Friday night with the Israelis who were barricaded within the embassy in Cairo as it was stormed by Egyptian protestors. One of them, the head of security, asked Netanyahu to inform his parents personally if the situation doesn't end well.

 

The prime minister promised that all efforts were being made to rescue the representatives from Egypt. "We will do everything in our power to get you out safely," he said. (Attila Somfalvi)
