The massacre in the village of Deir Yassin took place on April 9, 1948. About 120 fighters from the Zionist right-wing terrorist groups Irgun and Lehi at the time invaded the village of Deir Yassin near Jerusalem.
The massacre is a key event in the Arab-Israeli conflict. The Haganah, the largest Jewish armed group at the time, condemned the attack. The Jewish Affairs Bureau sent a letter of apology to King Abdullah I of Jordan, which was rejected. The massacre strengthened the determination of Arab countries to intervene in Palestine, which took place five weeks after the incident.
