An Israeli-Arab woman who filed for a new identity card may be 120 years old.

 

The woman, from the village of Jisr az-Zarka, listed her year of birth as 1888 on an application for a new identity card to replace the one she lost.

 

 

The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, walked into the Hadera branch of the Interior Ministry with her great-great-granddaughter, who helped translate for her, Yediot Achronot reported.

 

Guinness Book of Records lists the oldest living person as a 114-year-old American woman.
