Amazing stuff! From the lost tribe in India! Thanks to the Jewish diaspora, Israel has one of the most diversified societies of any Western country.
"In the 2000s, as the small Israeli town of Sderot endured heavy rocket fire, thousands of residents left the city. Around the same time, a new population began moving in: Bnei Menashe Jews from the northeast Indian states of Manipur and Mizoram.
More than 100 Bnei Menashe families called Sderot their home until Oct. 7. The community was deeply proud of what it created: the first synagogue and beit midrash — or Torah study hall — run exclusively by Bnei Menashe Jews. It was a dream, for many, that began halfway across the world in India. ..."
An estimated 200 young Bnei Menashe men have joined the Israeli military's war effort.
