📅 23 Augustus 1929 📍 Palestina

Violence spread from Jerusalem after months of disputes over the Western Wall/Buraq and British mandate policy. The crisis was rooted in growing opposition to land loss, immigration, and the absence of representative government. Palestinians and Jewish communities suffered deaths; Britain responded with an inquiry that addressed immediate violence but left the larger political conflict unresolved.
