The museum, accusing Israel of "cold-blooded terror," said it would donate proceeds from its most valuable artifact to Palestinians
(Aug. 5, 2025 / JNS) Money raised from the sale of a book about the Sarajevo Haggadah and from tickets sold to view the ancient manuscript will be donated to “helping Palestine,” the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina announced on Aug. 1.
The public notice, splashed across the Sarajevo institution’s website with a large Palestinian flag and signed by the museum’s acting director, Mirsad Sijarić, declared:
“In this way, the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina provides support to the people of Palestine who suffer systematic, calculated and cold-blooded terror, directly by the state of Israel, and indirectly by all those who support and/or justify it in its shameless actions.”
