Foreign Tech Firms Cut 4,400 Jobs in Israel Amid War and Weak Shekel

The story · English

Foreign high-tech companies operating in Israel are projected to cut approximately 4,400 jobs in 2025, a significant reduction attributed to the ongoing war and a weakened Israeli shekel. This trend indicates a potential slowdown in the sector's growth and hiring.
