Jewish Yemeni children reading the Torah in a cave, Haidan Al-Sham📍 Yemen 🇾🇪 c. 1992 #NativeThreads
//
The town of Haidan Al-Sham is located in the rugged and mountainous part of northern Yemen, near the Saudi border and the Jews there made use of whatever spaces were available. These boys gathered on a weekly basis to study the Torah. Since the time this photo was taken, most of the Jews have left that part of the country, moving to bigger cities, or to occupied Palestine.
