An urgent appeal to Western countries, save potential victims of the Taliban - the women, human rights activists and media people from Afghanistan!

We, former senior government officials, ambassadors and former members of the defense establishment, high-tech and communication professionals, scientists and researchers, writers and artists from all walks of life and creativity in Israel, express deep shock and concern in the face of the harsh images of the Taliban's occupation of Afghanistan.

Recent news indicate the concentration of unmarried women aged twelve to forty-five, to be used as war trophies, to satisfy the needs of Taliban fighters, as well as the execution of human and civil rights activists.

As members of the Jewish people, who 77 years ago knocked on the doors of the free world seeking refuge from its destruction by the Nazi, we cannot remain indifferent in light of the cry for help from the women and men, the citizens of Afghanistan

We call upon the leaders of the free world, including Israel, to come together and send an airlift that can take on women and girls, human and civil rights activists, members of the media, in order transfer them to places of shelter.

Hurry up! Every passing hour brings the Afghan people closer to humanitarian catastrophe and to fatal abuses of human rights
