Description | Men loading a shipment of food on the wharf destined for the 4400 Jewish migrants aboard three British transports which attempted to return them to France after the ill fated SS Exodus 1947 was intercepted off Palestine. During the first two weeks the transports lay off shore, while the refugees refused to disembark, the JDC sent aboard over 100 tons of food and medicine. | |||
