Israel’s unemployment rate in January declined to its lowest level in more than two years as an expanding economy led to the creation of new jobs.
The rate fell to a preliminary 6.1 percent from 6.3 percent in December, the Jerusalem-based Central Bureau of Statistics said today on its website. The rate was 7.1 percent in January 2010.
