Argentinian Jews who went “missing” during the last Argentine dictatorship were remembered. A tribute to the estimated 1,900 Jews who went missing from 1976-1983 was held Dec. 7 at the AMIA Jewish cultural center in Buenos Aires, which co-sponsored the event along with the Argentine Missing Jews Relatives Association. According to reports, Jews were among the groups that bore the brunt of particularly brutal treatment during that period.
