Autograph Letters from Gilgil Internment Camp – Kenya, 1948
Five autograph letters from a prisoner in the internment camp of Etzel and Lehi exiles in Gilgil. Gilgil, Kenya, 1948.
Letters sent by an underground fighter, Haggai Lev, from Gilgil internment camp, to his parents and sister in Palestine. In the letters, he tells about his life in the camp and his concern about the events in Palestine.
When the British Mandate was about to come to its end, Etzel and Lehi underground fighters were arrested and deported to internment camps in Africa. 288 deportees were arrested in Gilgil internment camp starting in October 1944. The deportees were returned to Israel two months after the establishment of the state, in July 1948.
