Exodus: The young man arrested in Sinai was released

The Israeli Nahorai Yitzhak Tamsit who was arrested in Sinai was released this morning and crossed the border to Eilat.

As was published yesterday (Sun), an Israeli youth wrapped himself in a Chabad flag and got into a confrontation with local residents in Sinai. The confrontation turned into a provocation at the end of which he was arrested and brought before a judge for an extension of detention. The case was handled by the Israeli consul in Egypt and the department for Israelis abroad, which was in contact with his family members. As mentioned, this morning he was released back to Israel.
