Coastal Road massacre : ウィキペディア英語版 | Coastal Road massacre
The Coastal Road massacre of 1978 was an attack involving the hijacking of a bus on Israel's Coastal Highway in which 38 Israeli civilians, including 13 children, were killed, and 71 were wounded.〔〔"''Operation Litani'' is launched in retaliation for that month's Coastal Road massacre." Gregory S. Mahler. ''Politics and Government in Israel: The Maturation of a Modern State'', Rowman & Littlefield, 2004, ISBN 0-7425-1611-3, p. 259.〕 The attack was planned by Abu Jihad and carried out by the PLO faction Fatah. The plan was to seize a luxury hotel in Tel Aviv and take tourists and foreign ambassadors hostage in order to exchange them for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.〔Moshe Brilliant, "Israeli officials Say Gunmen Intended to Seize Hotel," ''The New York Times'', March 13, 1978〕 According to a Fatah commander who had helped to plan the attack, the timing was aimed at scuppering the Israeli-Egyptian peace talks between Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat and damaging tourism in Israel.〔〔("A Sabbath of Terror" ), ''Time magazine'', March 20, 1978.〕 However, due to a navigation error, the attackers ended up north of their target, and were forced to find alternative transportation to their destination.〔 ''Time'' magazine characterized it as "the worst terrorist attack in Israel's history."〔 Fatah called the hijacking "Operation of the Martyr Kamal Adwan",〔Edgar O'Ballance (1979). ''Language of Violence: The Blood Politics of Terrorism'', p. 289, Presidio Press (Original from the University of Michigan), ISBN 0-89141-020-1, ISBN 978-0-89141-020-1〕 after the PLO chief of operations killed in the Israeli commando raid on Beirut in April 1973.〔Greenaway, HDS, "Arab Terrorist Raid in Israel Kills 30", ''Washington Post'', March 12, 1978.〕 In response, the Israeli military forces launched Operation Litani against PLO bases in Lebanon three days later. ==The attack==
