Damascus's main Jewish cemetery restoration starts
The Mosaïque Foundation has begun renovation work on the Jewish cemetery in Damascus, located along the Damascus Airport Road and containing hundreds of graves, with the aim of rehabilitating the site in July. The work includes cleaning, reinforcing the deteriorating tombs, installing lighting and surveillance cameras, in an effort to revive the heritage of the Jewish community, which has significantly declined in number. Visits to the cemetery have become rare after synagogues were closed and some sites were damaged, though the cemetery itself was not heavily affected during the Syrian war.
