| Ijlil al-Shamaliyya District of Jaffa إجْليل الشماليّة - ג'ליל א-שמאליה Ethnically cleansed days ago |
Either in December 1947 or January 1948 the leaders of al-Shaykh
Muwannis, al-Mas'udiyya, al-Jammasin,
and the mukhtars of 'Arab Abu Kishk and Ijlil
met with Haganah representative in the house of Avraham Schapira in Petah Tikva
and expressed desire for peace. Despite the commitment of these villages not harbor
any Arab Liberation Armies or local Arab Militia, they were all completely ethnically
cleansed. On April 3rd 1948, the inhabitants fleed for their lives fearing
