I was there in the 80's. I wonder if they kept the trenches and attack display? Probably did as it was an important battle / situation during the 1948 Arab Israeli War. |

The Kibbutz was evacuated at night. Two men were taken on stretchers, and the defenders became disorganized after an artillery barrage. One stretcher team including a female disappeared, and is believed to have become prisoners. No trace of them after the war, nor was there any record of their capture by the Egyptians.
The Kibbutz's farm animals were around during the siege, though they were killed by shelling, or members of the Kibbutz.
