In 1937, Croatian Jewish refugees faced a turning point. The Peel Commission's proposal to partition Palestine created a shift in the acceptance of Croatian Jewish refugees. As tensions rose in Europe, more doors closed to those fleeing persecution, prompting many Croatian Jews to seek safety in Palestine. The Commission's plan, although never fully implemented, raised awareness about the plight of Jewish refugees and catalyzed international support for their resettlement. This moment underscored the urgent need for sanctuary for refugees and highlighted Croatia's role in shaping global refugee policies. Ultimately, it marked a crucial step in the history of Croatian Jews seeking refuge and safety during a tumultuous time. #Croatia #JewishRefugees #PeelCommission #PartitionPlan #Palestine #RefugeeCrisis
