Details
- Kufr ‘Inan and Farradiyya, passed on the ‘Ilabun march, were emptied a few weeks after Operation Hiram (Nakba and Survival, PDF p.98, as read in part 3).
- Still partially populated after Hiram, its remaining villagers were pressured to move; the military government commander reported 128 villagers expelled to other villages and 64 expelled beyond the borders (Nakba and Survival, PDF p.158).
- ‘Awad Hasan Mansur, moved by the army to Majd al-Krum in 1949 and then to Al-Rama, testified that repeated requests to return to Kufr ‘Inan’s lands were refused; its refugees lived for dozens of years in temporary shelters at al-Dabba, al-Rama’s western entrance (Nakba and Survival, PDF p.159).
