Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly traveled to Moscow with a plea for the release of Mossad commandos allegedly related to the hijacking of the “Arctic Sea” vessel, says RT contributor Wayne Madsen.

But the mission was not a success, believes the journalist.

“[Netanyahu] obviously came away empty-handed,” Madsen told RT. “The eight individuals who hijacked the ‘Arctic Sea’ apparently are still under arrest in Moscow.”
