The cabinet is currently meeting to discuss the government’s refugee policy.
The ministers are talking about absorbing tens of thousands of Ukrainian refugees who are eligible for citizenship under the Law of Return.
As of Friday, Israel had taken in over 6,000 refugees, though only roughly half of them were eligible for citizenship.
