"Yitzhak Levanon arrived in the early hours of Sunday on a Turkish Airlines flight from Istanbul", an airport official told Agence France Press.
 "The ambassador's arrival had not been announced and he flew in complete secrecy," the official said.


On September 9, embassy staff was evacuated after angered Egyptian protesters attacked the Israeli embassy headquarters in Cairo, following an Israeli airstrike claimed lives of several Egyptian soldiers on the border.
