Gov't unanimously approves new 'Infiltrators Law'

The government has unanimously authorized a bill intended to to prevent the 'inflitration' of African asylum seekers into Israel. This is the bill's third formulation, after the first two version were shot down by the High Court for infringing on migrant's basic human rights.

 

The new version of the bill, called the Infiltration Prevention Act, will allow the government to hold the asylum seekers for up to 20 months in the 'open-prison' Holot Detention Center, despite the fact that the detention cause was the reason the court nullified the two previous versions.
