Tel Aviv and Jaffa deportation was the evacuation on April 6, 1917, of 10,000 people from Jaffa, including Tel Aviv, by the authorities of the Ottoman Empire in Palestine.[1][2] The deportation mainly targeted the Jewish population of the city, resulting in the eviction of all 8,000 Jewish inhabitants. The evicted civilians were not allowed to carry off their belongings, and the deportation was accompanied by severe violence, starvation, theft, persecution and abuse.[3][4][5][6][7] It is thought that about 1,500 of the evicted people died as a result of the deportation.[8] Shortly after the deportation, the Muslims affected were able to return to their homes, but the Jewish population was not able to return until the summer of 1918.[6]
