Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked announced yesterday (Sunday) a change in the refugee outline, in that their relatives will be exceeded from the set quota.

This is after previously determining that the quota of refugees who will be allowed to enter Israel will be only 5,000, while about 20,000 Ukrainians who stayed in Israel before the war broke out, illegally she claims, will be able to stay temporarily and not be deported back to Ukraine in the coming months.

Therefore, the High Court ruled today (Monday) that the petition filed against Shaked's outline, at the request of the Ukrainian Embassy, ​​will be scheduled for an urgent hearing before the vehicle within seven days, after the petition

is amended in accordance with the new decision

, The State announced that in practice the sky is open for at least seven days, as a result of which the quota has not been filled, and therefore the Supreme Court has found to hear the petition within this period of time.

Advocate Tomer Warsaw, the petitioner, said that "we are pleased with the great urgency with which the High Court acted, and hope that the government, convening today, will reach a decision that will open the air to the refugees from Ukraine so that the petition will no longer be necessary." .

According to the outline drawn up, a Ukrainian citizen who arrives in Israel will receive a temporary visa for a period of three months.

If the fighting does not stop by then, Ukrainian citizens will later also be allowed to work in Israel.

The Ukrainian citizens who will now arrive in Israel under the humanitarian quota will not be forced to deposit any guarantee at the airport, except for signing an undertaking to leave Israel as soon as the state of emergency ends.

This is in contrast to the current situation, where each refugee is required to deposit NIS 10,000 bail, a move that has provoked much criticism.
