PM pledges millions to ‘rehabilitate’ areas with high percentage of migrants

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the government will invest tens of millions of shekels to strengthen neighborhoods with a high percentage of illegal migrants.

Speaking at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting, Netanyahu said south Tel Aviv and other areas are “groaning under the burden of a complex reality” and would be defined as “national priority areas.”

He says the funds will go to improve social services, education and healthcare in those areas.
