About Shlomo Ben-Yosef
- Shlomo Ben-Yosef (Hebrew: ???? ??-????; May 7, 1913 - June 29, 1938) was a member of the Revisionist Zionist underground group Irgun.
- He is most noted for his participation in an April 21, 1938 attack on a bus carrying Arab civilians, intended as a retaliation for an earlier attack by Arabs against Jews, and emblematic as a rejection of the establishment policy of Havlagah, or restraint.
- For this reason, and especially for having been the first Jew executed by the British authorities during the mandate period, Ben-Yosef became a martyr for the Revisionist cause and is commemorated by the State of Israel as one of 12 Olei Hagardom.
