Institution for handicapped people named after arch-terrorist Abu Jihad
“The Martyr Abu-Jihad Al-Wazir Institution for Handicapped Persons organized a political conference in the Al-Rashidieh refugee camp near Tyre in southern Lebanon yesterday [April 19, 2014]. The conference was attended by Fatah leaders and members, the PLO factions, representatives of the Palestinian national and Islamic powers, parties and national and Islamic organizations and a large crowd from among our people. Yussuf Zamzam, a member of the Fatah leadership in Lebanon, said the deceased Martyr had been a model commander and father at all places of the struggle, and had organized numerous self-sacrificing operations (i.e., terror attacks), of which the most important were Kamal Adwan’s operation, which was led by the self-sacrificing fighter and Martyr Dalal Mughrabi, the Savoy Operation, the Coast Operation (i.e., the Coastal Road Massacre) and the Dimona Operation (i.e., the Mothers’ Bus attack).”

Abu Jihad (Khalil Al-Wazir) was a founder of Fatah and deputy to Yasser Arafat. He headed the PLO terror organization's military wing and planned many deadly Fatah terror attacks. These attacks, which killed a total of 125 Israelis, included the most lethal in Israeli history - the hijacking of a bus and killing of 37 civilians, 12 of them children.
Kamal Adwan was responsible for Fatah’s terrorist operations and a senior member of Black September. However, the operation referred to in the above item is the Coastal Road Massacre. He was killed by Israeli forces in April 1973.
Dalal Mughrabi led the most lethal terror attack in Israel’s history, known as the Coastal Road massacre, in 1978, when she and other Fatah terrorists hijacked a bus on Israel's Coastal Highway, killing 37 civilians, 12 of them children, and wounding over 70.
Savoy terror attack – In March 1975, eight terrorists traveled by boat from Lebanon to a Tel Aviv beach. They took over the Savoy Hotel and took guests as hostages. The next morning, Israeli forces attacked and killed seven of the terrorists. Eight hostages and three soldiers were killed by the terrorists during the attack.
Mothers’ Bus attack – On March 7, 1988, Muhammad Abd Al-Qader Muhammad Issa, Muhammad Khalil Saleh Al-Khanafi, and Abdallah Abd Al-Majid Muhammad Kallab hijacked a bus carrying workers to the Negev Nuclear Research Center in Dimona, and murdered 3 of its passengers – Miriam Ben-Yair, Rina Shiratky and Victor Ram. The attack is referred to as the Mothers' Bus attack because many of the passengers were working mothers. The terrorists were all killed by an Israel Police counter-terrorism unit that stormed the bus.
