31 July 1958,
77 Palestinian prisoners managed to flee Shatta prison. 190 Palestinian prisoners participated in the rebellion to take control of the prison. They beat a guard and fled from the prison front door after cutting the phone line and electricity. Egyptian Muhammad Othman was the ideologist of the largest prison flight in Palestinian history. There were battles with both guards and other prisoners who were trying to prevent escape. Thirteen escaped prisoners and two guards died.
