Davar Newspaper. Special afternoon edition regarding "Yetziat Europa" 18/7/1947.
[1] leaf. 28x40 cm.
Special afternoon edition of the Davar newspaper issued during the attack on the Exodus illegal immigrant ship. The newspaper reports, "One dead, 5 in critical condition, 20 seriously injured... water is entering the ship which is in danger of sinking." After the morning edition of Davar's report that the Exodus was nearing the shore, this edition provided a real-time update. This episode ended with all the travelers, about 4,550 Holocaust survivors,  forcibly returned to German DP camps.
Tears at the top of the pages and margins, tape reinforcements. Moderate condition.
