Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox terrorist attack Шаблон:Campaignbox Palestinian Fedayeen insurgency The Ein Ofarim killings was an attack by Palestinian Fedayeen, which occurred on Wednesday night, 12 September 1956.[1][2][3]

The attack

On Wednesday night, 12 September 1956, a Palestinian Fedayeen squad infiltrated into Israel from Jordan. The militants attacked the Ein Ofarim oil-drilling camp near the village Hatzeva, while other personnel were out of the camp for grocery shopping. They killed 3 Druze watchmen,[4][5][6] one in his room. The bodies of the guards were stabbed and their guns were stolen by the attackers.[2]

Victims

The three victims, Nawaf Abu-Ghazi (25 years), Suleiman Hatoum (25 years) and Rafik Abdullah (23 years), were buried in their hometown of Sumei.[7] They were commemorated on Mount Herzl.[7]

Aftermath

With consulting his Cabinet, the Israeli Prime Minister decided on a reprisal raid.[4] Since the nearest Jordanian police fort was 'topologically difficult', the police fort 80 kilometers away at Gharandal was chosen.[4] During the operation, either 9 or 13 Jordanian police and members of a desert camel patrol unit were killed, along with two civilians.[4] IDF casualties in the operation included one dead soldier and 12 wounded soldiers. The police station and nearby structures were destroyed.[4][8]
