WND: Isaeli Special Forces Rescue The Last Jews In Aleppo
But one family member who had converted to Islam denied right to return
Special mission rescues final Jewish family in Aleppo, but aliyah regulations prevent complete success.
It was recently revealed that Israeli special forces carried out a daring operation to rescue the last Jewish family in the Syrian city of Aleppo.
The Jewish Chronicle reports that preparation for the mission began months in advance. First an Israeli-American businessman named Moti Kahana sent a message to the family, whose name has not been released, that he wanted to get them out of the war-torn country. The family was aware of how dangerous Syria was, but they were too afraid to even take the chance on escaping.
Kahana, who has a number of connections with rebel forces, soon heard reports that ISIS was closing in on the family and decided to get them out, whether they liked it or not.
WNU Editor: Aleppo is one of the oldest cities in the world, and Jews have been living there for thousands of years. And now the last ones have left. We are clearly living in unprecedented times.
