This list of Arab towns and villages that were depopulated during the 1948 Palestinian exodus gathers about 500 items. Some areas were entirely depopulated and destroyed; others were left with a few hundred residents and were repopulated by Jewish immigrants, then renamed. Towns and villages are arranged according to the subdistrict of the pre-1948 British Mandate of Palestine they were situated in. | | Israeli troops in Beersheba, October 20, 1948 | | | Ramla between 1870 and 1880 | The Trappist monastery in Latrun | [edit] See also - ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l Morris 2004, p. xv
