Fifty French Jewish children and teens were removed from a Vueling Airlines flight in Valencia, Spain, after singing Hebrew songs. Their summer camp director was arrested. Eyewitnesses and Jewish media report escalating tensions, with claims of antisemitic remarks from airline staff. Spanish authorities cited disruptive behavior, while the children's parents and community leaders decry antisemitic discrimination.
