Anticipated arrival of over 1,000 Sri Lankan workers in Israel during March

Date:

March 24, Colombo (LNW): In March, approximately 1,000 workers from Sri Lanka are anticipated to arrive in Israel to engage in agricultural work, primarily focused on harvesting citrus fruits.

This information was provided by the Director General of Israel’s Population and Immigration Authority.

Following the Hamas massacre on October 7, distress has permeated the agricultural sector.

Consequently, numerous efforts have been undertaken to address the resulting challenges.

These efforts include forging agreements with other nations to recruit foreign laborers and facilitating discussions between Israeli employers and embassy representatives.

The ministry has emphasised that the influx of Sri Lankan workers will offer immediate assistance in meeting the labor demands of this critical industry.

Furthermore, their contribution is viewed as instrumental in safeguarding the food security of the State of Israel.
