Jews Ethiopia
There are very few Jews left in Ethiopia. Due to the policies of the Socialist and militaristic Derg government, Israel airlifted many of the Jews still living in Ethiopia to Israel. This is considered the lost tribe of Judaism. The Derg were anti-religious and Jews in particular were the targets of persecution. Israel officially recognized Ethiopian Jews in 1975 and started the clandestine airlift operations starting in 1980 through the early 1990s, taking in over 40,000 in that time.
