| Attacking Israeli force | Haganah and IZL forces attacked the city from the East and North. The Eastern attack attack originated from Khulda, al-Qubab, Jimzu, and Danyal, and the Northern attack originated from Majdal al-Sadiq, Qula, and al-Muzayri'a. During the attack on the city, the Zionists used fighter bombers for the first time to bomb the city and the nearby airport. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| City defenders |
Transjordan army, some Arab Liberation Army, and local Palestinian
militias. The people of al-Lydd and al-Ramla should be very proud of their city defenders because in April and May 1948, they launched several counter attacks on the Zionist forces, which resulted in the liberation of several surrounding villages between al-Lydd and Jaffa, plus the liberation of al-Lydd train station & its airport. The question which begs itself: - What would have happened if these heroes were given the chance of defending their cities? |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Acts of terror | Soon after the city's occupation, the "Jewish Army" committed its biggest massacre in Palestine, which resulted in the murder of 426 men, women, and children. At least, 176 of these people were slaughtered in Dahmash mosque, which functioned as the city's main mosque. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ethnic cleansing |
Soon after al-Lydd's massacre, the inhabitants were
terrorized into fleeing their city, and out of the 19,000 people who used to
call al-Lydd
home, only 1,052 were allowed to stay. Yitzhak Rabin, the Noble Prize winner, has written in his diary soon after Lydda's and Ramla's occupation:
Later, Rabin underlined the cruelty of the operation as mirrored in the reaction of his soldiers. He stated during an interview (which is still censored in Israeli publications to this day) with David Shipler from the New York Times on October 22, 1979:
Just before the 1948 war, the residents of the twin cities, Lydda and al-Ramla, almost constituted 20% of the total urban population in central Palestine, inclusive of Tel-Aviv. Currently, the former residents and their descendents number at least a half a million, who mostly live in deplorable refugee camps in and around Amman (Jordan) and Ramallah (the occupied West Bank). According to Rabin, the decision to ethnically cleanse the twin cities was an agonizing decision, however, his guilty conscious did not stop him from placing a similar order against three nearby villages ('Imwas, Yalu, and Bayt Nuba) 19 years later. The exodus from Lydda and al- Ramla was portrayed firsthand by Ismail Shammout, the renowned Palestinians artist from Lydda itself, click here to view his exodus gallery.

| Refugees' migration route |
On July 14th 1948, the " Jewish Army" terrorized the inhabitants of al-Lydd and
al-Ramla into fleeing to Ramallah via
al-Qubab, Salbit,
Bayt Nabala, and Kufr Ein.
Close to 55,000 people clogged the
roads in and out of Ramallah for weeks,
where 350 Palestinians died due to exhaustion
and dehydration. As the refugees were departing the twin cities, many of them, especially
the women, were robbed,
stripped of their jewelry and money at roadblocks that were manned
"Jewish Army". In that respect, it's worth quoting Aharon Cizling,
the 1st Israel Agriculture Minister, who stated in July, 1948 :
It's very sad that for the first time in the twentieth century, terrorizing civilians out of their homes was used to achieve military and political objectives. In that regard, Yigal Allon explained how this expulsion had a "positive" impact on the war, at least from the hit point of view. He stated in mid-July 1948:
Often, the Israeli commanders on the scene were encouraged to use refugees to burden the enemy's war machine, clog their roads, divert food and other supplies away from their enemy, and to demoralization the population and the Arab armies. |

| City's name through history | The city may have picked its name from a Greek tribe known by Lydda, who were the first to settle the area. During the Roman period, the city was known by Diospolis, but soon after the Muslim Arabs conquest, al-Lydd regained its original name until the Zionists changed its name to Lod in 1948. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| City area size | In 1945, al-Lydd city covered an area of 3,855 dunums, which included 645 dunums for roads, wadies, and railroads, ... etc. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Municipality area size | In 1945, al-Lydd municipality covered an area of 19,868 dunums, which included 663 dunums for roads, wadies, and railroads, ... etc. It should be noted that al-Lydd was a Zionist Free Zone (ZFZ) until its occupation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Nearby wadies & rivers | To the west of the city, al-Lydd border Wadi al-Sarar just before it terminates into al-'Awja river. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Major plantations |
In the years between 1942-1945, al-Lydda's had 3,217 dunums planted with citrus
trees, and 5,900 dunums planted
with olive trees. Since Israeli still maintains and enforces the "Law Of Absentees", most of Lydda's industries, farms, buses, cars, railroads, cattle, real states, ... etc. have been looted and became the property of the "Jewish state". When similar injustices were perpetrated against Europe's Jewish citizens by the Germans and the Swiss during WWII, the Jews of the world demanded justice for their looted art works and properties. The question which begs to be asked is :- Are the Palestinian people entitled for compensation for their looted properties? |
