(Network Journal) — The government of Israel announced earlier this month that it will bring 8,000 more Ethiopian black Jews, known commonly as Falashas, from Ethiopia to Israel. Those awaiting the airlift are currently living in the Ethiopian city of Gondar. There, they receive aid services from the North American Conference on Ethiopian Jewry and health services from the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee. According to Israel, the Ethiopians will be brought at the rate of about 200 per month over four years.
