Jews of Yemen Hostage in Their Own Homes

Jews of Yemen Hostage in Their Own Homes

Sources tell YWN that a grenade was thrown this morning into the home of Saeed Ben Yisroel Chala, who is the temporary Director of the Jewish school in Raidah. Bichasdei Hashem, no one was injured.

The matzav in Yemen is right now at a critical stage - Tefillos would be in order, and perhaps an outcry - as the Jews in Raidah are currently hostages in their own homes.

Askanim in the USA are working to�pressure the Yemen federal government to transport all the Jews from Raidah into the city Sanaa, which has a stronger structure of law and order (where federal forces are directly in charge, rather than tribal forces).
