Two jets of Israeli Air Force accompanied an Egyptian plane that entered Israel's airspace to Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv on Saturday, Youm7 News reported. The plane that carries Egyptian pilgrims heading to Jerusalem to take part in the celebrations of Easter and visit the holy sites, was intercepted by Israeli warplanes for entering the airspace without identifying itself. The Egyptian pilots were flying on this route for the first time, that's why they didn't know the instructions, Israeli Radio reported. About 7000 Coptic Egyptians headed to Jerusalem through an airlift between Cairo and Tel Aviv managed by Air Sinai airlines, or through Jordan.
