Reply to comment by shiver-yer-timbers in Egypt Has Ordered 11 Israeli Pilots To Leave Its Territory After They Landed On Wednesday Without First Obtaining Visas by Neo2199
Landing at an airport for fuel to get turned around and leave is not the same as “entry” in an immigration sense, otherwise crew and passengers would need visas for every single country they have a transfer in despite never leaving the airport facilities. Given it was an emergency (lack of fuel, weather), I wouldn’t be surprised if there were an ICAO violation here for denying appropriate service to the aircraft and crew.
