Attack on the Israeli Embassy in Argentina marks 33 years without perpetrators

Attack on the Israeli Embassy in Argentina marks 33 years without perpetrators

On March 17, 1992, a terrorist attack destroyed the Israeli Embassy in Argentina, killing 29 people and injuring hundreds. Among the dead were employees of the Israeli embassy, elderly residents of a nursing home, and Argentine children on their way to school.

The Hezbollah group claimed responsibility for the attack, which was followed two years later by the infamous bombing of the Amia (Argentine Israelite Mutual Association), the worst terrorist attack in Latin American history.

More than thirty years after the attacks, no one has been held accountable for the crimes.
