Germany said Thursday it is providing 25 million euros ($27 million) for Holocaust survivors in Israel to help them cope with the impact of the attack by Hamas and Gaza war.
Each of the 113,000 Jewish survivors in Israel will receive a one-off payment of 220 euros, according to the Claims Conference, an organisation that seeks damages for Holocaust survivors and which worked with the German government on the scheme.
