Hundreds rally in Tel Aviv for missing Yemenite children
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleHundreds of protesters gather in Tel Aviv calling for government recognition of the alleged kidnappings of hundreds of mostly Yemenite children in the 1950s.
Demonstrators chant “Where are the children? Open the files,” and “Recognition, healing, justice.”
Likud MK Nurit Koren and Joint (Arab) List MK Dov Khenin are in attendance.
Koren is heckled by some protesters after reassuring them the government does recognize the kidnappings, pointing to a Knesset committee tasked with hearing evidence on the affair and a bill submitted to the Knesset to open the graves of the missing children, which passed a preliminary reading. Some in the crowd shout angrily at the Likud MK and interrupt her remarks.
