Population in Israel grows by 1.1% in 2024 as record emigration and deaths impact growth, a Central Bureau of Statistics report found.
There were 31,000 immigrants in 2024 alone, from approximately 100 different countries.
New immigrants built Israel’s past and shape its future, yet they face unjust myths and prejudice—why aliyah remains vital for the nation's growth and identity.
According to the IDF’s data, 59.79% of the draftees are men, and 40.21% are women, with an average age of 18.95 years.
The decision follows a recommendation from the Population and Immigration Authority, and Basilio will receive his status at the Population Administration office in Tel Aviv on Monday.
Visitors will have the chance to sample flavors and engage with the rich cultural worlds of immigrants, connecting with their stories through immersive experiences.

Out of the 5,000 awaiting aliyah, approximately half have relatives who have already moved to Israel.
"This immigration symbolizes the deep attachment of the Jewish people to their country," Ofir Sofer, the Aliyah and Integration Minister, said.
To attract more individuals to migrate, the finance minister has introduced a new tax relief that lowers the purchase tax rates for residential property transactions involving new immigrants.
