Overall: @Muhandes: Article looks mostly good. The only issue is that I'm not seeing Brussels in the source? Only that it was Belgium. Could you provide the quote verifying Brussels? Then it will be good to go. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:11, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@BeanieFan11: Here is a source for Brussels: https://weareinamerica.com/idb-192/ It says "הוא שימש בבריסל כיועץ", which translates to "he served in Brussels as a consultant". Muhandes (talk) 07:52, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
