The Budapest radio today announced that the citizenship of 150 Jews in Hungary had been revoked. No reasons for the measure were given. The broadcast did not explain whether those affected are Hungarian-born or naturalized citizens or people who automatically acquired their Hungarian citizenship when Hungary annexed the areas in which they were born.
