Jerusalem, 27 May, 2026 (TPS-IL) — During an enforcement activity carried out by the Population and Immigration Authority in Rehovot, 15 foreign workers without work permits, Turkish citizens, were located at a construction site.
Some of the workers only held tourist status, some had asylum applications already denied, and some had abandoned their legal employer.
Following the findings at the site, a criminal investigation was opened against the developer, the executing contractor, and the manpower company that provided the workers.
The foreign workers were transferred to continue the deportation process.
