The Palestinian Saiqa forces and Fatah forces attacked the town of Aishiyeh; clashes broke out between the Palestinian forces and the townspeople, whose defences soon collapsed, and the town was overrun and 70 people killed. A number of the remaining cadres were abducted to be exchanged for the Fatah leader Othman Abu Gharbiyeh, who was held by militias allied to the Zionist entity.
