  • Poland buys Saudi diesel in record import spree fueled by Ukraine war: sources

    In a never-before seen move, long-range tanker Minerva Pisces recently carried around 95,000 mt of Saudi ULSD from Yanbu to Gdansk, while around 35,000 mt arrived from BP's Rotterdam refinery in the Netherlands, split over two parcels.

Those who cannot claim Israeli citizenship are given tourist visas and barred from working or from accessing many social benefits. The government has not announced long-term plans for their care in case the war drags on.
