The Palestinians’ struggle for the right to their lands continues
On March 30, 1976, in response to Israel’s massive expropriation of Palestinian lands, Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel declared a general strike and held protest marches in the Galilee, the Triangle and the Naqab (Negev). During these demonstrations, six Palestinians were killed and dozens more were injured by police and military fire. These events came to be known as “Land Day”, and each year they are commemorated as they symbolize the Palestinians’ ongoing struggle for their lands.
