Attack
At 7:00 a.m. on 11 November 1982, an 18- or 19-year-old Lebanese Shia Muslim named Ahmad Jafar Qasir drove a Peugeot 504, which had been outfitted as a car bomb, towards the Israeli military command centre at high speeds and then detonated upon crashing into the first floor of the inspection building. 75 Israelis were killed, including agents of the Shin Bet, along with 14 to 27 Arabs (Palestinians and Lebanese) who were present at the site. Additionally, 27 Israelis and 28 Arabs were injured during the attack, while 10 Israeli soldiers went missing.
