Operation Hiram was a military operation conducted by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. It was led by General Moshe Carmel, and aimed at capturing the Upper Galilee region from the Arab Liberation Army (ALA) forces led by Fawzi al-Qawuqji and a Syrian battalion. The operation, which lasted 60 hours (29–31 October), ended just before the ceasefire with the neighboring Arab countries went into effect. As a result of the operation, the Upper Galilee, originally slated by the United Nations partition plan to be part of an Arab state, would be controlled by the newly formed state of Israel, and more than 50,000 new Palestinian refugees were expelled from their homes.

㉓ Reviewed in the sweep
Operation Hiram was a 1948 IDF operation that captured the Upper Galilee. Through 2005 the opening said brigades involved in the operation "committed the Safsaf massacre, in which 70 blindfolded men were executed and 3 girls raped," and that Israeli forces at Hula "executed the remaining children, young persons, older and disabled persons in a savage massacre." Today's opening describes the operation only by belligerents, commanders and casualty counts, with no mention of Safsaf or Hula, though the word survives seven times in the body. A reader today does not learn from the opening that IDF brigades were reported to have massacred prisoners and villagers during the operation.
