Creepy: “My father died in Israel and we are stuck in Turkey”

by

Yitzchak and Chaya I returned stuck in Turkey with their four children, with whom they traveled to the revelry of Rabbi Chaim Pelagie, as every year in Izmir. The family members are recovering in Corona and therefore knew that they were flying and returning to Israel without the need for isolation, the family mourned Yitzhak said.
My returning family was supposed to return to Israel a week ago, but the closure of the sky caused them to get stuck in Turkey. Yesterday, Yitzhak received the bitter news – his father died in Israel. Yitzchak is an only child and due to the closing of the sky he was unable to attend his father’s funeral and now he is looking for a place to sit Shiva and say Kaddish about his father.
In a conversation with him, he tells of the terrible situation he found himself in: “My father passed away yesterday, there is no quorum here to say Kaddish, we are alone here, I call the Foreign Ministry people and say there is no way to help us. My father’s funeral was yesterday and I was an only child. “Of my father, I am deeply saddened. The money is starting to run out, we are stuck in a cheap hotel and looking forward to salvation.”

Yitzhak added, “There is an Erdogan charity here and the locals advised me to ask him for help, what will I say? That my country does not let me in and I will ask for help from Turkey? I am ashamed. I own a business that is currently collapsing, we were supposed to be here four days and there is no one to run “My business, because we’m stuck here. I can not even sit seven on my father. We have even recovering permits, there are souls here, there are children here, there are difficult cases, why do it?”

The case of the I returned family joins a long line of difficult cases created following the decision to close the sky. Israeli cancer patients who have flown for life-saving treatment in Austria can not return for further treatment in Israel and on the contrary, patients who must fly for life-saving treatment cannot leave the country. 14-year-olds were left without their parents in the US, parents of a four-month-old girl got stuck in Dubai and quite a few other touching cases.

Currently, Ben Gurion Airport is closed at least at 7.2 at midnight. The Ministry of Health is demanding an extension of the decision, despite the thousands of Israelis left abroad without the possibility of returning home. Next and when it is, it is a plane that contains only about 170 seats and can not provide an answer to all those thousands of Israelis scattered around the world, what is more, in order to catch the same flight, Israelis have to travel to Germany, and arrive equipped with a negative result. .
