Malaria in Mandatory Palestine
History of the disease in British-ruled Palestine
Malaria was a major issue in Mandatory Palestine, having been attested as endemic to the region since the biblical period. In the early 20th century, multiple malaria epidemics resulted in widespread deaths. The disease severely affected large areas of Palestine, including much of the land that was purchased by the Jewish settlement.
