Israeli Ambassador to the Philippines Ilan Fluss paid a courtesy visit to Senator Raffy Tulfo in the Senate recently.
During said visit, Fluss praised and thanked Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) for dedication to their work in Israel and concern to their employers, which made Tulfo proud.
“I thank the Pinay caregiver Camille Jesalva who risked her life to save her 95-year-old patient from an attack by the Hamas group in October 2023.”
In particular, Fluss mentioned the heroism of Pinay caregiver Camille Jesalva who risked her life to save her 95-year-old patient from an attack by the Hamas group in October 2023.
The Israeli government honored Jesalva for her heroism this July 2024.
The two also discussed the technology used by Israel to meet the need for clean and potable water, which can also be adopted in the Philippines.
On the other hand, Tulfo promised Ambassador Fluss to support the bill setting August 9 as Philippine-Israel Friendship Day.
