Talk:Coastal Road massacre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] How many died?
I've seen sources claim 9 died and two were captured. Presumably, Yahya Skaf was among those captured? Anyone got an RS? -- Kendrick7 01:23, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

- I found one cite that said 9 dead Palestinians (presumbly the terrorists, though it failed to say that in so many words), 34 dead Israelis. I found a page on Google books that began "and 78 wounded. Four survivors were severely injured." but no way google was going to serve me the previous page. But, combined with the unsourced 36 figure for passengers, and the unsourced 11 figure for the terrorists -- that hints at the numbers adding up somehow. But it's still rather mysterious. If you have Hebrew citations port them over. -- Kendrick7 09:02, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
The mysterious bit is that the Israelis thought that one or two terrorists got away, while the Arabs thought that the Israelis were hiding one or two captured prisoners or their bodies... AnonMoos 19:35, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
It's not a mystery see the Shabak web site "Bus 300" affair. The 1 Palestinians was photographed being arrested uninjured put in the vehicle but the turned up dead at the other end of the journey. The second Palestinian was executed in the area as noted by the reporter. It was on the "this month" section of the Shin Bet site when it opened. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashley kennedy3 (talk • contribs) 18:24, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
