Jews of Yemen Emmigrate to Israel

November 30, 1948

Between 45,000 and 60,000 Yemeni Jews are evacuated en masse to Israel. Their living and economic conditions are harsh– many are homeless, living in ghettos, and burdened with heavy taxes. Some are successful shop keepers and merchants. See their stories in this fourteen minute Spielberg library film.
