Israel’s Cabinet on Sunday approved a budget of 20 million shekels ($5.2 million) to incentivize African migrants and asylum seekers to voluntarily leave the country, in addition to 10 million shekels ($2.6 million) to compensate Israeli communities whose quality of life has been negatively impacted by migrants.
In addition, an inter-ministerial team headed by ministry director generals will be set up to further address the issue.
