Israel deports US journalist

News editor for Palestinian agency put on flight to New York

Israeli authorities today deported an American journalist who was working as an editor for a Palestinian news agency.

Jared Malsin, who is Jewish and in his late 20s, was detained at Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion airport eight days ago as he returned from a holiday in Prague.

His girlfriend, a Lutheran church volunteer who flew back with him, was deported two days later, but Malsin was held in detention at a cell in the airport while he began a legal challenge to his deportation order.
