WATCH: Birthday party for last Jew in Galilee village

Margalit Zinati of Peki’in, in northern Israel, celebrated her 86th birthday this week with hundreds of hikers who came to visit the ancient synagogue and the cave where famed mystical sage Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai once hid from the Romans.

Zinati, who is the last Jew in the town, which is now a Druze and Muslim village, shared stories about the ancient Jewish community that once thrived there.
