Fiji's Defence Minister said a Fiji Airways flight had left Tel Aviv with almost 200 Fijian religious pilgrims, plus citizens of Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States on board.
The flight will arrive in Nadi, Fiji, on Thursday, Defence Minister Pio Tikoduadua told reporters in Suva, and praised the aircrew "who chose to fly into a nation at war".
Fiji Airways special flight 2394 landed in Ben Gurion airport on Tuesday "on a mission to bring Fijians home", and had safely departed, Tikoduadua said at a press conference on Wednesday. The minister also said that no decision had been made on where to locate Fiji's mission in Israel, in comments that appeared to back away from a pledge by deputy prime minister Bill Gavoka that an embassy would be opened in Jerusalem.
