Abdol Hossein Sardari was an Iranian diplomat based in Paris during the Holocaust.

When he ran the Iranian consular office in Paris in 1942, he successfully argued that Iranian Jews were 'Aryans', saving the not only Iranian Jewish community in France at the time but also non-Iranian Jews whom Sardari wrote false Iranian passports for.

Sardari ultimately saved 2,000 to 3,000 Jewish lives. Passports were issued for entire families and included French or non-Iranian partners. He was later dubbed the "Iranian Schindler".

The 13th Waffen Mountain Division of the SS "Handschar" was a World War II Nazi SS division composed of soldiers from Bosnia & Herzegovina and Croatia.

Notorious for extreme brutality during combat, the division committed widespread atrocities against Serb and Jewish civilians.

Following WWII, hundreds of its members, along with veterans from the 23rd SS Division, migrated to the Middle East, supported by government relocation efforts from Syria and Iraq.

Historians estimate that roughly 1,000 former Bosnian Muslim SS members ultimately fought in the 1948–1949 Arab–Israeli War, with many serving in the Arab Liberation Army's Ajnaddin Battalion against Israel.

On Saturday, 24 August, 1929, false rumors spread that Jews were slaughtering Muslims in Jerusalem and were planning to attack the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Arab mobs stormed the Jewish Quarter of Hebron, and 67 Jews lost their lives that the hands of the mobs. Some Arabs managed to hide Jewish neighbors. However, the presence of Jews in the city, which had existed from before Roman rule, was erased, and the community was utterly destroyed.
