(IsraelNN.com) Sixteen Yemenite Jews, including three families, arrived on aliyah (immigration to Israel) late Sunday afternoon at Ben-Gurion International Airport. The group is expected to spend the initial stage of absorption in Jewish Agency absorbtion centers.
The Jewish Agency asked not to divulge the identity of the olim (new immigrants) for fear of attacks against the families they left behind. On Sunday, a Muslim extremist was sentenced to death in Yemen for murdering a Jewish community leader. The extremist has called on Yemeni Jews to convert to Islam.
