Israelis should not think twice before aiding Syrian refugees, Knesset Education Committee chairman Amram Mitzna (Hatnua) said on February 10 Monday.
“It’s important for Arabs and Jews [to] work together to do something,” Mitzna said. “We cannot be apathetic in light of what is happening beyond the border.”
At the committee, Mitzna hosted 30 teen members of Jewish, Arab and Druse youth groups who volunteer to help Syrian refugees via Israel Flying Aid (IFA) – an organization that provides aid through emergency medicine and care for trauma victims in countries with which Israel does not have diplomatic relations. |
