Descripción:

The Balad al-Shaykh massacre was the killing of a large number of Arab villagers by the Haganah in the Palestinian Arab village of Balad al-Shaykh hours after the Haifa Oil Refinery massacre during the early stages of the 1947–1948 civil war in Mandatory Palestine. It was one of the largest, and earliest, massacres during the 1948 Palestine war.

The massacre took place in the early morning and between 21 and 70 adult Arab men were killed. At least two women and five children were also killed. The killings had a significant effect on morale amongst Palestinian civilians in the Haifa region. Two Haganah attackers were also killed and two others were injured.
