A flight from Israel's Ben Gurion Airport to Cairo was canceled at the last minute, apparently at the request of Egyptian authorities, Israel Radio reported.
The flight was supposed to take more than two hundred pilgrims who wanted to visit the grave of Rabbi Yaakov Abuhatzera near Alexandria. The reason for the cancellation is thought to be the Egyptians' concern over the marking of a year to Israeli Operation Cast Lead.
