Hundreds of people on Sunday stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field to protest the arrival of an airliner from Tel Aviv, Israel, Russian news agencies and social media reported.

Authorities closed the airport in Makhachkala, the capital of the predominantly Muslim region, and police converged on the facility. There were no immediate reports of injuries or arrests.

Russian news reports said people in the crowd were shouting antisemitic slogans and tried to storm the airliner belonging to Russian carrier Red Wings.

Video on social media showed some in the crowd on the landing field waving Palestinian flags, protesters attempting to overturn a police car and others checking the passports of passengers who had arrived in Makhachkala.

[Typically disgusting phrasing – to the media, storming an airfield and hunting for Jews is just a “protest” not the possible start of a pogrom. The “protestors” went from the airport to storming through local hotels…um…protesting some more. ~ Beege]

This is what "globalize the intifada" looks like. https://t.co/6pd1fFTbkF
