Ethiopian Jews Remain in Danger as Last Flight Lands in Operation 'Tzur Israel'

Aliyah and Integration Minister MK Pnina Tamano-Shata, who is Israel's first Ethiopian-born lawmaker, was instrumental in partnering with the Jewish Agency to bring up to 2,000 members of Ethiopia's Jewish community to Israel. "This is a journey that is well underway, but far from complete. I am grateful for the honor of successfully leading Operation Zur Israel, which resulted in the Aliyah of 2,000 sons and daughters to parents who have waited patiently in Israel for this reunion for many years," said Tamano-Shata.
