Dear Reader, As you can imagine, more people are reading The Jerusalem Post than ever before. The Israel Air Force will have its first Ethiopian pilot, as Lt. Y completes the military’s prestigious pilots course later this week, Army Radio announced on Tuesday. After the three-year intensive course, Lt. Y will now serve as a navigator on IAF jets, the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit confirmed to The Jerusalem Post. Close to 140,000 Ethiopian Jews live in Israel, most having been flown to Israel in Operation Moses and Operation Solomon in the mid-1980s to early 1990s.
