""Israel continues to be one of our key global manufacturing and R&D sites and we remain fully committed to the region," the company said in a statement"
"The latest move by Intel follows tech giant Samsung Next, which announced in April that it had shut down its operations in Israel and shifted its activities abroad"
Whatever the reason, this is good news.
