Life of Mountain Jews in Azerbaijan

A 90-years-old member of the Aqsaqal club plays dominoes at the area of the club in Qırmızı Qəsəbə, or Red Town, Quba district of Azerbaijan on 28 September 2016. Qırmızı Qəsəbə is a biggest compact settlement of the Mountain Jews in the world. The population of the Town is near 4 thousand people. Mostly elder people live in the town and younger people go to work abroad. Mountain jews from Russia have founded a charitable foundation for supporting the community. So, they built the club where elder people can spend their time together, drink tea and play board games. More than 20 men usually come to the club. ( (Photo by Oleksandr Rupeta/NurPhoto))
