Commemorating 67 years to Dayr Yassin massacre

On Wednesday, April 8, we will commemorate the 67th anniversary of the Dayr Yassin massacre.  We will walk along the main street of the village (now Kanfey Nesharim Street), learn about the village and its Nakba, and pass some of the Palestinian buildings that are still standing along the road - people were massacred in some of them - as well as the Kfar Shaul mental hospital, whose buildings were once the core of the village.  We'll stop at the remains of the Palestinian cemetery and end the tour in the grove behind the hospital.
