Egyptian security forces deported five Israeli tourists from the Sharm el-Sheikh tourist destination Wednesday, state newspaper al-Ahram reported.

 

According to the report, the Israelis were deported after refusing to receive treatment for swine flu in a local hospital. The five Israelis are all members of the same family, and were put in isolation at the hospital several hours after their arrival in the city. They were deported after fleeing the isolation ward to one of the city's hotels. (Roee Nahmias)
