Speaking to GB News Eitan said: "He completely turned on me.
"He started shouting that he's from Belfast and that he knows everything about ceasefires and then he started cursing. He told us to 'get the f*** out.'
"Because of where we were sitting, the only way out was through the stage. So we had to pass right in front of him.
"Me and my friend, we gathered our things. We got on the stage and we started walking towards the exit.

"Meanwhile he produced his Palestine flag again and and waved it at us.
"He shouted some more curses at us and started chanting 'ceasefire now, free Palestine' trying to insight the entire audience.
"People in the audience started joining in, somebody from the first row shouted at us 'Shame people.'
"Not a single person stepped in to defend us. What I did see from the stage were two other couples running towards the exits and I immediately knew that they were the other Jewish members of the audience."
