Palestinians Call for Probe into 1948 Tantura Massacre

HeadlineJan 24, 2022

The Palestinian Authority is calling for an international commission to investigate a massacre committed by Israeli forces in the Palestinian village of Tantura in 1948. This comes after last week the Israeli newspaper Haaretz revealed there’s a mass grave under the parking lot of the now-popular Dor Beach, of over 200 Palestinians executed by Zionist gangs in Tantura. 1948 marked the beginning of the violent Israeli occupation of Palestine, known as the Nakba.
