The Joint Distribution Committee today reported that 113 Jews departed from Hungary to Israel on August 12th.
This is the tenth transport of Hungarian Jews since the Hungarian Government agreed in 1950 to permit 3,000 of the 150,000 Jews in Hungary to leave for Israel. It is estimated that some 200 are yet to leave under the original agreement.
