A spokesman for President Herzog told Israeli newspaper Hayom, "the incident is over," but did not provide further details, as quoted by The Times of Israel July 24.

President Herzog and his delegation were allowed to leave their plane at Paris airport, after being held on board for 40 minutes after landing over concerns over security, a spokesman said.
