In the mostly Muslim region of Dagestan, Russia, an angry mob stormed airport where a flight from Israel arrived on Sunday, forcing authorities to close the facility and divert flights.
Multiple videos posted on social media showed a crowd of people inside the Makhachkala Uytash Airport (MCX) and on the runway, some waving the Palestinian flag, others forcing their way through closed doors in the international terminal.
In photos and videos verified by CNN, the crowd outside the airport held antisemitic signs that included slogans such as “We are against Jewish refugees,” and “There is no place for child-killers in Dagestan.”
