Israel to Welcome 10,000 Indian Workers to Address Severe Manpower Crisis in Construction Sector

Facing a significant manpower shortage in the aftermath of the October 7 conflict with Hamas, Israel is set to receive around 10,000 workers from India, starting next week. The workers will arrive in batches of 700 to 1,000 per week, providing crucial support to the construction sector, which has been grappling with stalled and delayed projects due to the recent conflict and restrictions on the entry of Palestinian and other foreign workers.
