Outrage over the behavior of Israeli tourists in Sri Lanka.
A disturbing video from Sri Lanka sparked outrage after Israeli tourists filmed themselves laughing as they pushed a local boat operator into the water during a boat trip.
Following the backlash, the tourists defended their actions and claimed that it was "just a joke", insisted that they did not intend to harm and described themselves as "good kids" who are supposed to enlist in the Israeli army next month. They also said they "didn't deserve this hate".
But what they dismissed as a joke raised serious questions about respect, humiliation and treatment of local people. This is one of many videos that have surfaced showing Israeli tourists abusing locals while on vacation in Southeast Asia.
