List Of Massacres Committed During The 1948 Arab-israeli WarThis is a list of massacres committed during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Massacre here means any event in which many civilian lives were lost. The information about massacres of Arabs has been researched extensively by Benny Morris, see http://www.logosjournal.com/morris.htm. Information about massacres of Jews comes from other sources. Note: In many cases the actual number of killed is very uncertain, and many of the facts are disputed. Details will appear on the page devoted to each incident. | Name | Date | Responsible Party | Death Toll | | Jerusalem Riots of 1947 | December 2, 1947 | Arab residents | 62 Jewish, 32 Arab | | Gush Etzion Convoy | December 11, 1947 | Arab | 10 | | Beth Nabala | December 14, 1947 | Arab Legion | 14 | | al-Tira | December 12, 1947 | Irgun | 13 | | al-Tantura | May 22-23, 1948 | Haganah | disputed | | al-Khisas | December 18, 1947 | Haganah | 10 | | Haifa Oil Refinery | December 30, 1947 | Arab workers | 39 | | Balad al-Shaykh | December 31, 1947 | Haganah | 60 | | Jaffa | January 4, 1948 | Jewish | 30 | | Haifa | January 16, 1948 | Jewish | 31 | | Lamed Hey | January 16, 1948 | Arab | 35 | | Jerusalem Post Bombing | February 1, 1948 | Arab | 6+ | | Ben Yehuda Street Bombing | February 11, 1948 | Arab (with British assistance) | 52 | | Sa'sa' | February 14, 1948 | Jewish | 11 | | Jewish Agency Bombing | March 11, 1948 | Arab irregulars | 12 | | al-Husayniyya | March 13, 1948 | Jewish | 30 | | Yehi'am convoy | March 26, 1948 | Arab | 47 | | Cairo-Haifa train | March 31, 1948 | Jewish | 40 | | al-Lajjun | April 4, 1948 | Jewish | 13 | | Deir Yassin | April 9, 1948 | Irgun, Lehi | 107-120 | | Qalunya | April 12, 1948 | Jewish | 14 | | Hadassah medical convoy | April 13, 1948 | Arab | 77 | | Kfar Etzion | May 13, 1948 | Arab | 50 | | Abu Shusha | May 14, 1948 | Israeli | disputed | | al-Kabri | May 21, 1948 | Israeli | ? | | Lydda (Lod) | July 12, 1948 | Haganah | 250 | | al-Dawayima | October 29, 1948 | Haganah | 80-100 | | Safsaf | October 29, 1948 | Israeli | 50-70? | | Saliha | October 30, 1948 | Haganah | 70-80 | | Hula | October 1948 | Israeli | 35-50? | | Arab al-Mawasi | November 2, 1948 | Israeli | 14 | More recent Arab-Israeli conflict See also the following resurgences of the Arab-Israeli conflict since then: Suez War (1956) | Six-Day War (1967) | Yom Kippur War (1973) | Lebanon War (1982) | first Intifada (1987-1991) | Al-Aqsa Intifada (2000-present) External links and references Pro-Palestinian Views/Sources Pro-Israeli Views/Sources
