When I arrived in Buenos Aires earlier this month to observe the 30th anniversary of the bombing of the Argentine Israelite Mutual Association (AMIA) building, it was a ritual that had become all too familiar.
American Jewish Committee (AJC) and the Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI) in North America announced a historic partnership at AJC Global Forum 2024 aimed at forging closer ties between Israeli and American Jewish teens and addressing growing rates of antisemitism in private high schools.
At AJC Global Forum 2024, American Jewish Committee (AJC) honored Nasreen Yousef, whose calm demeanor and quick thinking helped prevent a massacre in the village of Moshav Yated on October 7.
While Israel is actively engaged in holding the October 7 perpetrators accountable, Argentina’s Jewish community and all of society are waiting for answers.
On July 18, 1994, Hezbollah, an Iran-backed terror group, bombed AMIA, the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, Argentina. More than 30 years later, it remains the deadliest antisemitic attack outside Israel since the Holocaust.
