Fortuna Ben Uliel and Yehia Malka met and married in Algiers. Both had children from previous marriages Eli Malka, Yehia’s son, and Pipin and Yosef Sharvit, Fortuna’s children. In Algiers, their first children together, Rina and Israel, were born. In 1948, the family immigrated to Israel by ship via Marseille, where the father was delayed due to eye problems, and the mother and children had to travel without him. In Israel, the eldest, Eli, was drafted into the army, the teenagers Pipin and Yosef were sent to a kibbutz, and the mother, with the younger children, arrived at the Pardes Hanna transit camp. Soon, the mother reunited the family and moved to the Musrara neighborhood, to a large house on Shvaty Yisrael Street, which they shared with three other families. The father also joined them, and over the years, the twins Hanna and Aliza, as well as Sarah, David, and Uri, were born. The family lived in Musrara until after the Six-Day War (1967). Rina Maimon (Malka) recounts her story and the story of her family.
