Description
Syrian-American Jewish delegation holds prayer service at the Faranj synagogue in Old Damascus' Jewish Quarter. "One of the purposes is to prepare the synagogues, to prepare the community here for people at least to start visiting," says a member of the delegation. The visit comes days after the head of the Jewish community in Syria, Bakhour Chamntoub, announced that unknown individuals had broken into a Jewish cemetery in Damascus, where they dug near the grave of Rabbi Hayim Vital, a prominent religious figure.
