JERUSALEM, April 4 (UPI) -- Responding to a newspaper’s claim that Israel is financing flights of migrants back to Uganda and Rwanda, the Prime Minister’s office said Friday that “all actions comport with international law.”
The Israeli newspaper Haaretz claimed the Israeli government is assisting in travel plans and paying for flights. The assertions came days after a High Court of Justice panel was told by the government that two unidentified countries agreed to take some migrants currently in Israel illegally.
