Women's Hostel

The section on the women's Hostel and other sections seem editorial, particularly pro Russian and anti British. There also seems to be an unnecessary amount of detail that seems to carry opinionated weight. Mrakawie ( talk) 08:06, 21 August 2020 (UTC) reply

Franghia: only one engineer, George, or also a second one, Alexander?

The Russian sources bring up an "Alexei" Frang(h)ia.

  • First of all, Alexei is a Russification of Alexander. The Franghia family was Greek, so Alexandros, in Arabic Iskander. Nobody apart from the Russians have called him "Alexei".
  • Second, was there a second engineer Franghia, or are Alex... and George (Georgios/Girgis) one and the same? An Alexei Frang[h]ia, Greek Orthodox Arab from Nazareth, had studied at the Kharkov Politechnic. Sometimes mentioned as George, sometimes as Alexei: it's either the same man, or maybe they're brothers/relatives of some kind who both went to study in Kharkov.
  • Franghia is probably repeatedly transliterated, Greek - Cyrillic - Latin. Arabs of Greek Orthodox faith use both Arabic and Greek versions of their given name.
  • The Soviet source: only has snippets online, only offers indirect info. Arminden ( talk) 00:40, 24 April 2021 (UTC) reply


Consulates are generally not notable in their own right, and there is very little detail at Russian Consulate General in Jerusalem - it should simply be merged here. Inf-in MD ( talk) 16:11, 13 November 2021 (UTC) reply
