CHAPTER SIX
Rebel Arms
- Arm
During the revolt of 1936-39 in Palestine, the rebels were using light
weapons, mainly rifles, pistols, mines and hand grenades. In spite of the
fact that the rebels did not have a shortage of arms during the revolt,
until 1939 obtaining weapons was not an easy task, and the variety of
makes of the arms used reflected the various sources from which they
“came. During the revolt, the rebels had four main sources of arms.
Firstly, there were the arms left by the Turkish army after the First
World War. When the Turks were defeated in 1917 and the British army
was occupying Palestine, many of the Turkish soldiers fled the country
leaving their arms and ammunition behind.
