The first group of Indian migrants claiming to belong to a lost biblical tribe has arrived in Tel Aviv. Their arrival is part of an Israeli government relocation program aimed at bringing members of the so-called 'lost tribes' to Israel. The program is based on a historical and religious narrative connecting these communities to ancient Israel. The migrants' arrival marks a new phase in Israel's efforts to expand its population through immigration of groups with claimed Jewish ancestry.
