Two days ahead of the 21st anniversary of the attack against the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires, the Jewish community commemorated the victims of the 1992 tragedy.

On March 17th 1992, 29 people were killed and more than 200 resulted injured following a terrorist attack at the building of the embassy of Israel in Argentina.

To pay tribute to the victims, their families gathered at the intersections of the Arroyo and Suipacha streets at 14.50 pm today when the traditional siren wail was heard again.

Meanwhile, the Jewish youth will be leading another commemorative ceremony on Saturday also at the former location of the Israeli diplomatic headquarters in the city.
