Israel authorities have deported 12 Malawian labourers who went to work in farms. 

Minister of Information and Digitalization, Moses Kunkuyu said the labourers abandoned their lawful employment at the farms to start working at a bakery.

He said the Malawi Embassy in Tell Aviv, Israel noted that the workers had valid visas and contracts to work in specific farms in the Israel agriculture sector.

“I would like to caution those who chose to go and work in Israel that a breach of contract will not be tolerated and that such behaviour may also reduce employment opportunities of the individuals concerned,” Kunkuyu said.
