Zebulun Siman Tov, the last Jew in Afghanistan, left the country last night (Tuesday), after he was convinced that his life was in danger from the Taliban regime.
A good sign he left the country with the help of foreign organizations alongside some of his neighbors, including women and children, and is now on his way to the United States.
In the documentation that reached Israel today from the GDC company, which specializes in diplomatic advice and humanitarian activities, a good sign is seen, alongside its neighbors, as it crosses the border of the country.
The documentation also shows the man's passport and his own documentation says in his voice that he decided to leave the country.
The documentation will not be published in order to protect the locals who helped a good sign to leave the country unscathed.
For years, the Jew insisted on remaining in the country despite the civil war and the threat of Taliban rule.
Last month, when the capital, Kabul, where Siman Tov lived, fell to the extremist organization, the man announced that he intended to stay in the country to take care of the last synagogue in its territory.
The departure of a good sign is the final end of the Jewish presence of more than a thousand years in Afghanistan.
The Jewish community prospered in the country in the Middle Ages when Jewish merchants settled along the Silk Road that brought goods from the Far East to the Middle East and Europe.
About 4,000 Afghan Jews left the country after the establishment of the State of Israel and immigrated to it.
