Muslim extremist kills Yemeni Jew
Motive currently "unknown." Whatever the motive, background facts are telling, such as the fact that, though Yemen once had tens of thousands of Jews, only 400 currently remain. "Muslim extremist kills Yemeni Jew," from the Associated Press, December 12 (thanks to Jeffrey Imm):
A suspected Muslim extremist has been arrested for allegedly shooting and killing a Yemeni Jew, a Yemeni police official said.
The official said Moshe Yaish Nahari was gunned down in the northern town of Riydah on Thursday, but that police had little information about the motive behind the killing.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity Friday because he was not authorized to talk to the media.
Said Jacob, a friend of the Nahari family, confirmed the 39-year-old Jewish man was gunned down but did not know the identity of the assailant.
Most of Yemen's roughly 400 remaining Jews live in Riydah. The poor country at the southern tip of the Arabian peninsula once had tens of thousands of Jews, but most have emigrated.
