Israelis celebrate release of hijack victims in Algiers

Very tired but happy, the last 12 Israelis freed from the July hijack were treated to a feast at Fiumicini Airport in Algiers. An El Al Boeing 707 diverted from Rome to Tel Aviv five weeks earlier was said to follow the passengers home to Rome. The Israeli chargé d'affaires in Rome thanked Italy for pressuring Algeria to secure release while Algerian papers denounced foreign pressure.
