Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yasur (Arabic: ) was a Palestinian village, located 40 kilometres northeast of Gaza, that was depopulated during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Its inhabitants fled a military assault by the First Battalion of Israel''s Givati Brigade on 9 June 1948, part of Operation Barak . The village consisted of an estimated 244 houses, an elementary school for boys, and a village mosque. The Israeli localities of Talmei Yehiel and Bnei Ayish were established on the former lands of Yasur. During the Mamluk period (1205-1517), a mail station between Gaza and Damascus was located in Yasur, although this was later transferred to the village of Bayt Daras. In 1596, Yasur was part of the Ottoman Empire, nahiya (subdistrict) of Gaza under the liwa'' (district) of Gaza with a population of 303. Villagers paid taxes to the authorities for the crops that they cultivated, which included wheat, barley, fruit, and sesame as well as on other types of property, such as goats, beehives and water buffaloes.
