Israel’s Center for Higher Education (CHE), along with its Health and Finance Ministries, approved a motion to bar foreign students from studying medicine at Israeli institutions. The decision followed a 2018 recommendation by the CHE, which found that many Israelis were going to Europe for their studies after not being accepted into Israeli programs.

So much for Sackler, then?
Yeah, it's already done. If you go on their website, they say they are not accepting applications.

Protectionism at its finest, but I guess it's the government's prerogative if they are at least partially funding the schools and they need the seats internally. It's a shame, because Sackler was one of the few reputable offshore schools Americans had access to that had a defined, successful path for students to follow to come back to the US for GME.
