Today is Jewish Refugees Day, when we remember the fate of 850,000 Jewish refugees forced out of Arab countries and Iran in the 20th century. Communities dating back 2,500 years were destroyed. At the United Nations, UN Watch’s Hillel Neuer asked Algeria, Egypt, Iraq and the others: “Where are your Jews?” We’re still waiting for an answer. | UN Watch

They fled under the cover of night. They couldn't say goodbye. They left everything behind. These are some of the testimonies of the 850,000 Jews from the Middle East and North Africa who were forced from their homelands. Join us for a special event at the United Nations in New York on December 4th raising awareness about the forgotten plight of Jewish communities from the Middle East and North Africa.
