Jaffa

====First World War====
In 1917, the [[Tel Aviv and Jaffa deportation]] resulted in the Ottomans expelling the entire civilian population. While Muslim evacuees were allowed to return before long, the Jewish evacuees remained in camps (and some in Egypt) until after the British conquest.<ref>Friedman, Isaiah (1971).

During the course of their [[Sinai and Palestine Campaign |campaign through Ottoman Palestine and the Sinai]] (1915-1918) against the Ottomans, the British took Jaffa in November 1917, although it remained under observation and fire from the Ottomans. The [[battle of Jaffa (1917)|battle of Jaffa]] in late December 1917 pushed back the Ottoman forces securing Jaffa and the line of communication between it and Jerusalem, which had already been [[Battle of Jerusalem |taken on 11 December]].
