Report: Israel cancels entry of Syrian Druze workers into Israel at last moment
Stav Levaton is a military reporter for The Times of Israel
The entry of Syrian Druze workers into Israel has been canceled in a last-minute decision by Israel’s political echelon, Kan news reports.
No reason has been reported as to why the decision was made.
Last month, Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that Israel would allow Syrian Druze to enter the country for work, months after the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria.
Preparations were made to carry out the initiative, with plans drawn up by Maj. Gen. Ghassan Alian, who heads the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, and who is Druze himself.
