This trip came after Israel made it clear it will not be a safe place for sanctioned oligarchs.
Abramovich was pictured in the VIP lounge of Ben Gurion Airport, shortly before the aircraft took off for Turkey. Last night the same plane flew into Russia, landing in Moscow at around 3am UK time.
The flights put Abramovich’s £49m Gulfstream beyond the reach of Israel and the EU.
On Monday night, a BBC Panorama documentary accused Abramovich of being “Putin’s money man” and said it had uncovered new evidence about alleged corrupt deals that made his gigantic fortune.
Last week, the UK government imposed sanctions on him, which will have big implications for Chelsea.
