The Minister of the Interior spoke with the Indian ambassador and promised to increase enforcement on the employment of workers in the evacuated areas. Pantibin Maxwell, a 31-year-old foreign worker from India, was killed by an anti-tank missile fired from Lebanon at Moshav Margaliot in the Galilee.

Maxwell, who came to Israel about two months ago to work, left behind a wife who was seven months pregnant, a five- and two- year-old girl Brothers - one of whom works in Israel.
