Today, we are discussing the recent events in Tel Aviv, where protests erupted between Eritreans that left dozens of people injured. Just a day after the protests, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made remarks to the public stating a plan to remove Eritreans living in Israel, as well as migrants from other parts of Africa, such as Sudan. Many claim that they cannot return to their home country due to conflict or repression, while the Israeli government recognizes them as economic migrants. This plan could include nearly 25,000 African migrants, and has raised questions about international law and their right to seek asylum.
