Palestine Calls for Probe Into Tantura Massacres
RAMALLAH (Anadolu) – Palestine has called for the formation of an international commission to investigate massacres committed by the Zionist regime in the Palestinian village of Tantura in 1948.
The call came after Israeli daily Haaretz reported on Thursday the discovery of a mass grave in Tantura village of Palestinians massacred by Zionist gangs in 1948. Palestinians say multiple massacres of Palestinians by Zionist gangs took place in Palestinian villages during the 1948 war in a bid to forcefully expel Palestinians from their homes and land, a tragedy Palestinians refer to as the “Nakba,” or “Catastrophe”.
