Israeli Wineries Face Uncertain Harvest Amidst War With Gaza

GIVAT YESHAYAHU, ISRAEL - JUNE 19: Israelis plant Chenin Blanc vines as Underdog Vineyards winery relies on family and volunteers to help plant a new vineyard on June 19, 2024 in Moshav Givat Yeshayahu in the Judean Hills in central Israel. Israeli wineries are facing a labor shortage for the upcoming harvest. Some 150,000 Palestinian workers from the West Bank and an additional 18,500 from the Gaza Strip used to enter Israel daily before October 7, but the permits were frozen by Israel for security reasons following the devastating Hamas assault.
