Lapid transfers NIS 50 million to Holocaust survivors

Finance Minister Yair Lapid has instructed his ministry to transfer an additional NIS 50 million ($13.5 million) to the Foundation for the Benefit of Holocaust Victims.

Increasing the foundation's budget – funded by the State, the Claims Conference and other organizations – is part of Yesh Atid party's coalition agreement with the Likud Beiteinu party. (Avital Lahav)
