An Israeli commission is slated to begin work this week in Buenos Aires on Jews who “disappeared” during Argentina’s military regime between 1976 and 1983. Some 30,000 people went missing during that period, when Argentina had a non-democratic government. The commission also will try to find information about Jewish children born in prison and then kidnapped.
