From the BBC:

A 45-year-old man is believed to have become the last Jew in Afghanistan after the death of the caretaker of the only functioning synagogue in Kabul.

It has emerged that the caretaker, Ishaq Levin, aged about 80, died of natural causes about a week ago.

His Jewish neighbour, Zebulon Simentov, lived with Mr Levin in the synagogue.

The death of the man believed to be his only co-religionist does not seem to be a source of grievance for Mr Simentov.

“He was a very bad man who tried to get me killed,” he told the Associated Press news agency, “and now I am the Jew here, I am the boss.”

I can’t decide if that quote is funny or terribly sad.
