• |
Over 700,000 children I Israel live under the poverty line, the largest number in the western world. |
• |
Since 1998, the number of poor children in Israel increased in 50% |
• |
The number of poor people living in Israel increased in 107,000 in 2004, and is now 1,534,000, as opposed to 1,300,000 in 2002. |
