Two German journalists in Israel have disappeared from their room in Elath and are presumed to have accidentally crossed into Jordan territory.
The two are Hans Germany, Viennese correspondent of Der Spiegel, and Miss Haggard Otto, a journalism student. They left the hotel to “look around” the Akaba Gulf port town leaving all their possessions behind them.
