 My grandparents, with their sons and daughters, left al-Majdal in 1948. They ran away with the arrival of the Jewish gangs, like the Haganah and the Shtan, who committed massacres in many villages in Palestine, massacres in the Tantoura, in the Yassin, in Kafr Yassif, in Kafr Qasim, in Beruwa, and in many others.
