At least seven rented private jets are suspected of carrying wealthy Russian oligarchs to Israel in an effort to escape sanctions imposed on Moscow.
According to the Times of Israel, the planes originate from a company in Turkey that provides jets for hire in Europe.
Tracking data showed the planes made trips to Moscow and St. Petersburg, then from those cities to Tel Aviv.
This comes after several Russian oligarchs have been sanctioned by the US, UK and EU, resulting in them being cut off from the US financial system, with their assets frozen and property blocked off.
