A collection of videos, images and documents connected with the rescue of Ethiopian Jews is now being made available to the public to mark the 30th anniversary of Operation Solomon, which brought 15,000 Ethiopian Jews to Israel on May 24, 1991.
Found during a digitization project being undertaken by army archivists, the material documents preparations for the rescue planes’ takeoff, their landing in Addis Ababa and the moment that the operation’s commander, Amnon Lipkin-Shahak, announced it was being launched. The videos were made by air force personnel, among them commandos from the Shaldag commando unit then led by Benny Gantz, which guarded the Israeli planes on the tarmac in Ethiopia.
