Events

Jews from Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Mexico and other countries have moved to Israel since 1948, often in waves that followed political or economic crises. Argentina, with the largest community in the region, sent thousands after the 1994 bombing of the AMIA Jewish center in Buenos Aires and especially after the economic collapse of 2001 to 2002.
