A major controversy has erupted after Tucker Carlson claimed he was stopped, questioned, and briefly detained by Israeli security officials during his visit to Israel. The incident allegedly took place at Ben Gurion Airport, where Carlson says airport personnel took passports and escorted his executive producer for private questioning. Carlson, who was in Israel reportedly to conduct an interview with US Ambassador Mike Huckabee, later described the experience as “bizarre” and confirmed that he left the country shortly after the encounter. However, the Israel Airports Authority has firmly rejected Carlson’s version of events. Officials insist there was no detention or interrogation, stating that only routine security questions were asked in line with standard international aviation procedures. WATCH
