The four Israelis who were arrested in Thailand and were in danger of being deported to Russia are expected to return to Israel tomorrow. Seven members of the "B-2" band, which opposes the war in Ukraine, were arrested after a performance at a club on the island of Phuket last Thursday.
The band was founded in 1988 in Belarus, which was then part of the Soviet Union, and became one of the most popular rock bands among Russian speakers. The two founders of the band are Israelis - Igor Bortnik and Alexander Uman.
