A Jewish man was injured last Sunday when a group of students started throwing stones at buses carrying Jews. The bus was attacked by students taking part in a demonstration to denounce the Israeli attacks in Gaza in the governorate of Amran last Sunday.
Security units arrested some involved in the attack. This incident also resulted in damages to a number of Jewish homes in the city. One Jewish man, Zaher Gafri sustained an injury to his eye and was hospitalized immediately. The Rabbi of the Jewish community in Yemen, Yahya Dawood, said that the Jewish community in Yemen at large denounce and strongly condemns the Israeli attacks in Gaza. “All religions prohibit killing people, regardless of their faith, and we believe that what is happening in Palestine, I mean Gaza, is against all human rights principles,” said Dawood on a phone interview.
