Israel's economy suffers huge losses due to the ban on Palestinian workers. The loss to the branches of the construction, industrial and agricultural industries exceeds 4 billion shekels ($1.2 billion) Israel has not yet been able to find an alternative to Palestinian workers, says the economist.

The humanitarian and economic logic indicates that there is an urgent necessity for Palestinian workers to return to the Israeli labor market, he says. Even the far-right parties in Israel are rising in direction of employing them again.
