The government is expected to approve bringing to Israel some 1,000 relatives of Ethiopian Falashmura. According to the decision, Interior Minister Aryeh Deri and the Population and Immigration Authority will examine the immigration applications and approve them. The proposal comes with a heavy cost of NIS 183 million, not including the cost of naturalization. "The government's decision to bring the Falashmura to Israel was already an extension that required study. For example, if a Falashmura married a Christian woman and she and her family joined the Gondar camp, if the couple immigrated to Israel, the woman could demand immigration of her parents and unmarried brothers."
