Jewish organizations have protested the refusal of the Swiss government to sign a reciprocal social security agreement with Israel in Jerusalem. The agreement was to be signed in Jerusalem Aug. II. But following Israel’s adoption of the Jerusalem Law, Switzerland announced that it would sign the accord only in Tel Aviv or Bern. The agreement assures Swiss citizens who move to Israel the continuation of their social security rights. The same applies to Israelis living in Switzerland, although there are less of them involved in this situation. p/>There will be no Daily News Bulletin dated Sept. 12 due to Rosh Hashanah.
