According to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, last April an International Solidarity Mission volunteer named Tom Hurndall was shot in the head by an Israel Defense Forces soldier in the Rafah refugee camp. He's been on life support ever since.
After months of legal wrangling, the Israeli government sent his family a check covering a little less than half the L17,000 it cost to repatriate him to the UK, but without acknowledging any liability.
The check bounced.
The Israeli Defense Ministry said it was due to technical reasons unrelated to the ministry, but the bank said, no, no technical problem,the account just didn't have the funds.
