The opening as it read in October 6, 2023

Australian Jews in Israel refers to Australian-born individuals of Jewish descent, who have emigrated to Israel ( Aliyah in Jewish communities). Jews understand Aliyah to be a spiritual journey as a result of their emotional connection to the land of their people. Since 1950, when the Law of Return was passed by the Israeli Knesset (parliament), diasporic Jews have been given legal provisions to acquire citizenship in Israel based on their Jewish heritage. The total population of Israel, as of December 2019, was 9,316,000 and, according to the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, there were roughly 10,000–12,000 Australians living in Israel, suggested by data from the most recent census that was held in 2016. Immigrants in Israel, known as Olim, are required to complete national service, usually serving in the Israel Defense Force. However, the length of service is dependent on an immigrant's age, as well as their family status, when they arrive in Israel. New immigrants are given assistance from the government to encourage integration.1 Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade . 2019. Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade . 2019.
