Israel has approved a plan to give asylum to 100 children orphaned in the Syria conflict. According to Israeli media reports, the children will initially get temporary residency status and allowed to stay indefinitely after four years. <br/><br/>Under the plan, the orphans would be housed in dormitories to begin with, then absorbed into the education system. They could also be taken in by foster families or adopted at a later stage, the report said. Israel is also considering special provisions to eventually allow other immediate family members to join them, according to the report. <br/><br/>Israel has technically been at war with Syria for decades, but has officially taken a position of neutrality in the current conflict.
