My friends were detained at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv. This is my attending physician, the head of intensive care at the Zaporozhye Stroke Center at the Zaporozhye Regional Hospital, his girlfriend and her mother. They are being held in an underground cell at the airport without food (they last ate early yesterday morning). Mom is an elderly woman. They were not allowed in for some pathological reasons. They all have jobs and decent earnings in Ukraine.
I feel responsible for them, because I helped them get to Israel - I helped them buy tickets and book a hotel (full prepayment for everything).
I turned to the hotline of the Ministry of Health for help. I heard a lot of words of sympathy. The man promised to help in any way he could and began to wind down the conversation. At the same time, I did not specify either the names of my friends or the city at the airport where all this happened.
