An IDF soldier visiting her parents in Turkey, who was arrested by Turkish authorities after calls by Islamic groups in Ankara to imprison her, was spirited out of the country in an under-the-radar mission on Feb. 18, Israel’s Channel 12 revealed on Wednesday.

Few details about the mission to bring the young woman home were given in the report, except that pressure by Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar and the United States were key to winning her release. That pressure overcame the Islamist groups, who had filed a complaint with Turkish legal authorities and demanded that she not be allowed to leave the Anatolian country.

The soldier, a dual Turkish-Israeli citizen, had been held in jail for several hours and then remanded to house arrest for several days. The offense was serving in a foreign army.
