We have successfully completed a rescue operation of about 200 Israeli citizens and entitled to Aliyah from northern Ethiopia.
The State of Israel cares for its citizens wherever they are. In recent days, the citizens of Israel and the rights of Aliyah from Ethiopia have entered into distress in the battle zones. We took them out of there and brought them to safety.
I want to thank the National Security Headquarters, the people of the Prime Minister's Office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the people of the Jewish Agency - for a quick, quiet and above all successful operation.
The people are now on their way from Gondar to Addis Ababa and from there they will arrive in the State of Israel.
We will receive them here with warmth and welcome.
Welcome to the State of Israel!
