An Israeli agricultural delegation from Teshuva Agricultural Products that was supposed to arrive on Filadhoo cancelled the visit after the islanders warned that they would not let the delegation go further than the jetty.
Island Council Member Mohamed Vijan today told Minivan News that almost all the citizens of the island were at the beach on Saturday to stop the Israel delegation from entering the island.
‘’But they never arrived, and no one informed the council that day that the visit has been cancelled,’’ Vijan said.
He said now the island was calm and everything was “as usual”.
