Dozens of San Antonio residents are headed back home after being caught up in the latest conflict between Israel and Palestine. Nearly 60 San Antonians in two different tour groups were in the Middle East when the latest round of fighting between Israel and Hamas began last weekend. The two tour groups were ultimately placed on buses in Jerusalem and taken to Amman, the capital of Jordan, where they were able to start getting flights home to Texas. About two-thirds of those caught up in the war had made it back to San Antonio as of Wednesday night.
