An appeal hearing for an Israeli woman sentenced to death on drug charges in the United Arab Emirates has been delayed, her lawyer says.

Fidaa Kiwan‘s hearing is delayed because two Pakistani citizens who were tried with her did not appear at the Abu Dhabi Federal Appeal Court, the Walla news site reports.

The hearing is expected to take place on June 7.
