Philippine immigration authorities on Tuesday raided a Chabad House on Siargao Island, arresting Israeli nationals who were staying in the country illegally, according to a report by the Israeli news outlet Walla. The detainees are expected to be moved to a detention facility in Manila, Walla said. No further details on the number of those arrested or the circumstances leading to the raid have been published at this time. The incident follows a series of recent Israeli enforcement actions against illegal residents within Israel itself, as previously reported by The Zioneer. However, this overseas arrest marks a distinct event involving foreign authorities acting against Israelis abroad.
