| (KUNA) -- Israeli police tossed in the calaboose scores of foreign pro-Paleostinian activists immediately after arrival at Ben Gurion airport in Tel Aviv on Friday. Around 60 activists from several European countries suspected of being pro-Paleostinian have arrived in Ben Gurion airport, the Israeli radio said. The Israeli police kept the activists in a separate lounge for interrogation, it added.
