Five Israeli citizens were detained at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport Wednesday.

The Israelis took off on an Aeroflot flight which landed at 12:15 local time and since then five of them have been detained for questioning, fingerprinting and DNA testing.

After waiting for three hours, the passengers were put in a locked room, without access to the bathroom or food and drink.

They were later informed that they would be returned to Israel without an explanation

Seems like a daily occurrence now.
Always praying for delayed baggage.

It seems like (at least two of them are) musicians that came to perform (presumably for a fee) which would have required an appropriate visa, but they probably relied on the age old Israeli attitude of not doing what's properly required. Being sent back.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!
