Interior Minister Deri Approves Outline to Absorb Syrian Children who have
survived the Fighting in Syria
(Communicated by the Interior Ministry Population and Immigration Authority)
Interior Minister Aryeh Deri, this week, authorized Population and
Immigration Authority personnel to begin contacts with relevant agencies on
allowing the absorption of children who have survived the fighting in Syria.
According to the outline, Israel will be able to absorb approximately 100
orphaned children thus facilitating their rehabilitation in Israel.
Minister Deri made it clear that, “The situation in Syria is very harsh.
Civilians have been slaughtered for years only a few dozen kilometers from
Israel. I have decided to order professionals in my ministry to work toward
absorbing children on humanitarian grounds in order to render assistance and
rescue 100 of them from the horrors and afford them good and normal lives in
Israel.”
