Flow Of Ethiopian Jews
Expected To Resume
Jerusalem (JTA) — The
flow of Ethiopian Jews to
Israel, said to have been
interrupted over the past
few weeks, is expected to
resume shortly, according to
authoritative sources.
Meanwhile, the thousands
of hopeful emigrants who
have gathered in the capital
city of Addis Ababa are be-
ing taken care of well, offi-
cials of the Foreign Ministry
and the Jewish Agency for
Israel said at a joint briefing
for reporters here late last
week.
They disputed unconfirm-
ed reports from Addis Ababa
that the Jews were living
there in miserable condi-
tions, subject to rampant
disease and attacks from
criminal elements.
Authoritative sources con-
firmed to the Jewish Tele-
graphic Agency that there
had been a cessation of
emigration from Ethiopia for
the past three weeks.
But they also confirmed an
Ethiopian Foreign Ministry
official's statement to the
mass-circulation Israeli dai-
ly Yediot Achronot that the
emigration will soon be
resumed.
The official was quoted as
saying his government has
no intention of reneging on
its agreement with
Jerusalem to facilitate the
emigration of Jews to permit
reunification with their
families in Israel. That
agreement was reached last
November, when Israel and
Ethiopia re-established dip-
lomatic relations.
Israel has vehemently de-
nied reports that the
emigration was halted be-
cause it had refused to supp-
ly the beleaguered Ethio-
pian regime with military
equipment, including cluster
bombs. The regime is re-
ported to be losing its
decades-long battle with
Eritrean separatists and
guerrillas in Tigre province.
Over the past few months,
the bulk of the country's
Jewish population has left
native villages in the nor-
thern province of Gondar for
the capital, hoping to
emigrate.
Earlier this month, both
Israeli and Ethiopian offi-
cials expressed concern that
non-Jews were infiltrating
this group and slipping out
of the country undetected.
Nevertheless, Ethiopia
wants the emigration to
resume with a low profile,
according to the official cited
by Yediot Achronot.
The Jewish Agency and
Foreign Ministry officials
denied reports that the Jews
whose departure has been
delayed in Addis Ababa are
living under rapidly de-
teriorating conditions or
that the authorities intend
to send them back to their
villages.
Such reports were made
public last week by Knesset
member Ge-ula Cohen of the
Tehiya party, who is also
deputy minister of science
and energy.
The Israeli officials said
their representatives in
Addis Ababa were in close
contact with the Jews there,
whose number they put at
close to 12,000.
According to the officials,
those waiting in Addis
Ababa have the services of

local doctors and have all
been inoculated in prepara-
tion for their departure for
Israel.
They are also receiving
regular financial help,
which lets them live in
relative comfort while
waiting to leave.
Jewish relief organizations
in the United States also
sought to allay fears that the
community was being ne-
glected.
A spokesman for the
American Jewish Joint
Distribution Committee said
his organization has been
giving humanitarian assis-
tance to displaced people, in-
cluding Jews, in Addis
Ababa over the last few
months, and had provided
nurses, midwives and other
forms of medical assistance.
The spokesman said that
the JDC was working in
Addis Ababa at the request
of the Ethiopian govern-
ment.
"Every Jew in Addis is be-
ing cared for and sheltered
and given medical treatment
when they arrive there,"
said William Recant, direc-
tor of the American Associ-
ation for Ethiopian Jews.
Recant pointed out,
however, that "coming from
