Israel had a special agreement with the Argentine military government to allow Jews arrested for political crimes to immigrate to Israel, citing an Argentine law that allowed Argentine citizens in prison to emigrate if another country was willing to take them in.
Israel havde en særlig aftale med den argentinske, militære regering til at tillade jøder arresterede for politiske forbrydelser at emigrere til Israel i henhold til en argentinsk lov, der tillod argentinske borgere i fængsel at emigrere, hvis et andet land var villig til at tage imod dem.
