(Israel Hayom) The Jewish community in Bahrain marked Holocaust Remembrance Day for the first time in a virtual ceremony at the community synagogue, which was recently renovated at the king's initiative. Amb. Houda Nonoo, from a Bahraini Jewish family, who was the kingdom's ambassador to the U.S., initiated the event. The guest of honor was Dr. Dore Gold, president of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs and a former UN ambassador and Foreign Ministry director-general, who had met with Nonoo during his visit to Bahrain in December 2020.
