One of Yemen's last Jews has passed away

Yihye Ben-Yosef, one of the last remaining Jews in Yemen, passed away last week and was laid to rest on Thursday.


Ben-Yosef refused to leave the Arhab district of Yemen with the rest of his community.


He was buried in Yemen by local non-Jews.


In 2021, the Houthis banished 13 Jews from Yemen. As of today, it is unknown if there are any other Jews still alive in Yemen.
