• Jews of Olyka Saved from Cossack Mob (1649)
During the Chmielnitzki Massacres (see entry for 4 Sivan), a Cossack mob gathered around the fortified town of Olyka. Among the Jews who had found refuge inside was R. David Halevi (the Taz), a refugee from the nearby city of Ostroh. As the Cossacks prepared to breach the walls, the Jews gathered in prayer in the synagogue. Weak and tired, R. David drifted off to an uneasy sleep, and in his dream he envisioned the verse, “I will protect this city to save it, for My sake and for the sake of My servant David” (II Kings 19:34). Indeed, the old cannons atop the walls miraculously fired spontaneously toward the enemy, who proceeded to flee (Minhagei Beis Alik, p. 752).

• Seville Jews Massacred (1391)

On June 6, 1391, corresponding to Rosh Chodesh Tammuz, a mob incited by the fanatical priest Ferrand Martinez killed 4000 Jews in Seville, a city in the Spanish kingdom of Castille. The violence soon spread throughout Castille and the neighboring regions, resulting in the murder or forced conversion of tens of thousands of Jews.

Among the great scholars who fled this wave of persecution were R. Yitzchak ben Sheshet (the Rivash) and R. Shimon ben Tzemach (the Rashbatz), who both settled in Algiers.

Islam is a copycat of a lot of things from Judaism and Christianity. The lack of originality is deep. Appropriation of Patriarchs, Matriarchs, "Ishmael". It is the absolute joke on Christianity which tried to convert Arabians into Christianity. Ohhh, if they had stayed home. !!!!]

very interesting----especially since you mention something about the SELEUCID style. That empire included Iraq, syria
some parts of west Asia----areas in which jews lived that were
INVADED by the minions of the Meccan rapist leading to a flood of jews into the Indian subcontinent---the remnant of
which still lived in Mumbai (Bombay) ----A friend of mine from Mumbai one day launched into a language I could not
I identified-----she later told me that it was "Iraqi Arabic"---
she was descended from Iraqi jews that fled the islamic invasion thereof-----to Bombay

• Vel' d'Hiv Roundup (1942)
On the 2nd and 3rd of Av in the year 5702 from creation (1942 CE), more than 13,000 Jews were rounded up by French police and interred in the Vel' d'Hiv, an indoor bicycle stadium in the center of Paris. They were later transported to Auschwitz to be killed. Within days, the Vel' d'Hiv was cleaned up and ready for recreation.

• R. Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn Arrives in Israel (1929)
In the summer of 1929, R. Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, sixth Rebbe of Chabad, visited the Land of Israel (the only Chabad Rebbe to do so—see link below). The stated purpose of the trip was to pray at the gravesites of the righteous individuals interred there. Among the cities he visited during his two-week-long stay were Jerusalem, Safed, Meron, Tiberias, Hebron, and Tel Aviv.

The Rebbe departed the Holy Land two days before the Arab riots of 1929, in which scores of Jews were massacred in Hebron and Jerusalem (see entry for 17 Av).
