Why thousands of Ukrainians can be deported from Israel

They are preparing to expel Ukrainians who are asking for refugee status en masse from Israel. And, as it turned out, there are many of them - more than 15 thousand people, and this year alone almost half of them filed applications, reports “A country".

The reason for the deportation is that the country’s authorities officially recognized Ukraine as a safe country in which there is no military action, and among those applying for refugee status they found many impostors.

These are mainly people from peaceful areas who came to the country under the guise of refugees from the ATO area. While their applications were being considered, and it took months, they could work without a special work visa, which is not easy to get.

They are attracted to Israel by high salaries - 2-3 thousand dollars. Construction jobs pay especially well—three times more than in Poland, which is popular among migrants.

The changes do not apply to Lugansk and Donetsk regions. Applications for asylum from immigrants from the ATO zone will be considered on an individual basis (although this does not guarantee obtaining status in Israel).

Imaginary refugees can now be deported in a couple of weeks.

The Israeli Interior Ministry considered that there were twice as many applications from Ukrainians and Georgians than from refugees from African countries (Eritrea, Sudan) who are in a war.

“We will use all means at our disposal to put an end to this phenomenon. Thousands of such applications, most of which are without any basis, complicate the work of the system and prevent our specialists from dealing with real requests,” said Israeli Interior Minister Aryeh Deri, quoted by the press service of the migration department.

By law, in case of refusal of refugee status, a person is obliged to leave Israel within seven days. If he refuses to do so voluntarily, a warrant is issued for his arrest. And from prison, an illegal is taken to the airport and sent home.

However, you can still pull time and appeal in court to the decision of the special commission to refuse refugee status.

But in the end, the deportation still shines, and the legal costs in Israel are considerable.

Payback for the “anti-Israel” resolution?

Since the outbreak of hostilities in the Donbass, Israel has not decided to recognize Ukraine as a safe country. The fact that everything has changed, according to experts, is a political motive.

Since December last year, relations between Ukraine and Israel have deteriorated sharply - after our diplomats approved an “anti-Israeli” resolution of the UN Security Council. According to it, Israel was once again called the occupier of part of Palestinian territory and called to stop construction on the disputed lands. Jerusalem was offended.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu immediately canceled the planned visit of the Ukrainian Prime Minister Vladimir Groisman.

Immediately, an agreement on migrant workers came under attack. Last summer, countries ratified a document according to which Ukrainians could get work in certain areas of the Israeli economy without bureaucratic delays.

Under this agreement, Israel allocated 15 thousand jobs in the construction sector to Ukrainian “employees” with confirmed qualifications and provided them with wages, health insurance and normal working conditions. It is now unclear when the agreement will go into effect.

“Immediately after the vote on the UN resolution, already in January, at the Israeli Ben Gurion airport, Ukrainians flying into the country began to be much more picky. By the way, they are now promising more friendly checks, because they hope that the decision on refugees will scare away illegal immigrants. Although, to be honest, Ukrainians behave calmly - they find work, work, send money home and do not create any special problems,” says journalist Shterenberg.
