PM: Drop in unemployment rate – a Hanukkah miracle
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a Hanukkah ceremony at the Knesset that the fact that the unemployment rate has dropped to 5% in October is akin to a the legendary Hanukkah miracle: "The miracle of the oil can was a budgetary one. A limited budget was available, and it was used in the best possible way to answer the people's needs. We will also have to find solutions of this sort.
"This is the lowest rate that we have seen in decades and one of the lowest in the Western world," he noted. (Attila Somfalvi)
