Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations (UN) will announce on Tuesday a plan to advance a resolution recognizing Jewish refugees from Arab countries, according to The Jerusalem Post.
The announcement will come as the General Assembly marks 72 years since the November 29, 1947 partition plan that established the state of Israel.
“The international community, like so often, is comfortable focusing only on Palestinian refugees while erasing the story of hundreds of thousands of Jews from the history pages,” Ambassador Danny Danon said.

“But the State of Israel will give voice to the truth and correct the historical injustice by putting an end to the deafening silence on the part of the international community.”
Tuesday’s event will also include further announcements from the Palestinian envoy to the UN, who is expected to introduce a resolution supporting the Palestinians’ right of return, JPost said.
Israel’s Permanent Mission to the UN says that the new resolution asking for the UN to recognize some 800,000 Jewish refugees from Arab countries is designed to undermine the proposed Palestinian resolutions.
An event hosted by the Israeli mission will also be held in New York Wednesday, to formally launch the new initiative, with US Special Envoy to Combat Anti-Semitism, Elan Carr, expected to attend.
As a passionate Jew and an Ardent Zionist I want to see the Jewish Monarchy restored to the House of David and the Third Temple Rebuilt.
