Quick Summary

The Israeli security forces arrested approximately 55,000 Jewish men between the ages of 16 and 45 in three days in September 1983. The arrests were carried out as part of a military operation to round up all male Jews in one area to ensure that no males would be left behind to carry out any attacks on the Israeli army's withdrawal from the Lebanon border, according to the Shin Bet security service chief at the time. No further information is provided about the specific circumstances or details of the arrests.
