I’m sure they will be treated with absolute respect, in an apartheid state. It’ll probably noy so different from going to work in Qatar.

Israel can’t take care of their own farms? In a war they are dominating?

I’m guessing they usually have Palestinians doing the hard labour, and they’re probably not really available at the moment…

The article says that 360,000 reservists have been sent to fight, as well. Typical wartime stuff: not enough workers at home because they’re fighting in the war.

Ah yes, all those reservists who normally work at farms for minimum wages.

Why wouldn’t they be working on a farm?

filister ,

Because it is hard work with low wages. And most developed countries are hiring immigrants to do such work for them.

I can imagine that a very low percentage of the occupied working force in the agricultural sector are Israelis and that majority are Palestinians, Thais, etc. since Israel cut all work permits to Palestinians including those living in the West bank they have opened a huge hole in their Labor market and are currently trying to fill with North Africans.

In 2018, a BBC investigation found that many migrant farm workers in Israel were subject to unsafe working practices and squalid, unsanitary living conditions.

Some Kenyans have supported the deal, saying it provides badly needed jobs at a time when Kenya is battling an unemployment crisis and the rising cost of living.

Malawi’s government has also announced that it will send 5,000 more young people to work on Israeli farms, rejecting calls to drop the plan.

“People are going out of desperation,” said William Kambwandira, the executive director at the Centre for Social Accountability and Transparency, a workers’ rights watchdog based in the capital Lilongwe.

Asked if he was worried for his personal safety, Mr Kupatamoyo replied: "I was already aware about the conflict in Israel, but there is a lot of fake news on social media.
