Weather of Arabia - "March 30" is a milestone in the history of the Palestinian people, who continue to fight the battle of steadfastness and survival and confront settlement and Judaization in all of historical Palestine. On this day every year, the Palestinians commemorate the Palestinian Land Day, with the same scenes repeated in new chapters of Displacement and uprooting of the Palestinians.

Palestinian Land Day.. What is its story?

Late in the night of March 29, 1976, the Israeli occupation army stormed the towns of Sakhnin, Araba, and Deir Hanna in the Galilee (north), and fired randomly to terrorize the residents and prevent them from participating in the protests and the comprehensive strike that was called for the next day, March 30. Rejection of Judaization and settlement on their lands and at the expense of their existence.

This was after the decision of the Israeli occupation government headed by Yitzhak Rabin and Minister of Security Shimon Peres, to move the Judaization and settlement plan in the Galilee by confiscating 21,000 dunums of the lands of Sahl Al-Batouf, Al-Mall and Al-Shaghour, which belong to farmers from Sakhnin, Arraba, Deir Hanna and Arab Al-Sawaed, in preparation for building settlement projects on their lands. Under the pretext of "development of Galilee".

That day turned into massive confrontations, rejecting the Israeli plans to confiscate lands, and during the confrontations that lasted for 3 days, 6 Palestinians from the Galilee, the Triangle and Tulkarem were killed, and hundreds were wounded by Israeli bullets, and thousands were imprisoned.

Land Day came after the Palestinian upheaval in the lands of 48 (the Green Line) in 1976, announcing a protest cry in the face of the policies of confiscation, uprooting and Judaization pursued by the Israeli occupation, and this donation resulted in a historical memory called “Palestinian Land Day”, when Palestinians plant olive trees On vacant lands threatened with confiscation.

Since its occupation of Palestine in 1948, the Israeli entity has been striving to eliminate the Palestinian presence by systematically seizing lands, dismembering them, demolishing homes, displacing their residents to establish settlements in their place, and Judaizing the historical features of Palestine, until the number of settlements exceeded 400 settlements, in which about 800,000 settlers resided.

The Palestinians continue to fight the battle of steadfastness and survival, in events that keep the tragedy of refugeehood and the dream of return entrenched in the memory and in the Palestinian struggle.
