Amid a surge in French Jewish immigration, 80 new immigrants arrived in Israel on Monday night.

“There’s no future outside of Israel, no future,” one man told The Press Service of Israel as his wife and two children smiled and waved flags. “And we want to build our family here in Israel, so that our kids will get a good education and proper values. And of course, we don’t have another country.”

The new arrivals were greeted at Ben-Gurion Airport by friends and relatives who broke out into spontaneous singing and dancing in celebration.
