• Sabra and Shatila Massacre On September 18, 1982, Lebanese Christian Phalangist militia conducted a horrific massacre of Palestinian civilians in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in West Beirut. The killings were carried out with the tacit approval of Israeli troops who were occupying the area. The massacre was a brutal act of retaliation following the assassination of pro-Israel president-elect Bachir Gemayel, and was rooted in the complex sectarian tensions of the Lebanese Civil War.
