There are some unusual countries participating in the Maccabiah Games in Israel.

One is Morocco, which may be the first time an Arab country participated since 1935. They sent one athlete, a swimmer.

Turkey, on the other hand, sent 48 athletes, in swimming, futsal, basketball, table tennis, track & field, tennis and archery.

Other countries sending delegations where one would not expect to find Jewish athletes include Mauritius (with 4 athletes), Botswana, Guinea-Bissau (10 athletes),  and Cuba with 55 participants.

UPDATE: Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan also have delegations (h/t Jean V)

Elder of Ziyon - حـكـيـم صـهـيـون



This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For over 19 years and 40,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.
