Dalal al-Mughrabi, a young Palestinian freedom fighter, nicknamed the “Bride of Jaffa,” led a bus hijacking operation.

Soldiers in Israel in 1978, which led to the killing of more than thirty Israelis. She was martyred in the operation along with other resistance fighters. She is the one who the poet Nizar Qabbani said “established the Palestinian Republic.”

At the age of 20, Dalal was chosen as head of the Deir Yassin Division, consisting of 12 guerrillas, to carry out an operation planned by the martyr Khalil Al-Wazir (Abu Jihad), which entailed taking control of an Israeli military bus and heading to Tel Aviv to attack the Knesset to pressure the occupation to release some Palestinian prisoners.

Indeed, Dalal and her squad infiltrated on March 11, 1978, from Lebanese territory. The group got off the ship that passed in front of the Palestinian coast after launching two rubber boats to take them to the shore

The operation was known in the name of Kamal Adwan, a Palestinian leader who was in charge of an apparatus supervising the resistance in Beirut, and who was assassinated - along with a group of resistance fighters in their homes in the Al-Fardani neighborhood on Sadat Street in Beirut in 1977 - by a squad that infiltrated Beirut, headed by former occupation Defense Minister Ehud Barak. .

Dalal told the hostages, "We do not want to kill you. We are only holding you as hostages to free our brothers detained in the prisons of your alleged state from the clutches of captivity." Then she took it out of her bag

She hung the flag of Palestine inside the bus while repeating, “My country... my country is yours, my love and my heart, Palestine, my land of ancestors, to you we must return.”

The squad clashed with the Israeli forces, and Dalal was martyred along with her colleagues

Before her martyrdom, Dalal left a will written in her handwriting to the Palestinians

“My advice to all of you, brothers, is to carry rifles against the Zionist enemy and direct all rifles towards
the Zionist enemy.”
