Hundreds of Jews from the remote region of Qara were
unable to join Operation Solomon due to the rebel advance.
When permission was finally granted it still proved
impossible to bring the Jews of Qara directly to Addis.
Large groups of Ethiopian Jews therefore traveled on
foot to collection points, from which trucks brought
them to Addis - from Addis they too returned home to
Israel.
Over the course of 9 months beginning on September 15,
1991, four thousand five hundred Jews followed this
route.
