The Kab Elias massacre occurred on 15 January 1976.

On 15 January 1976, Palestinians assaulted Kab Elias, a Christian-Muslim village in the Bekka. Sixteen Christians were killed and 23 injured. The exodus of Christians to Zahle, East Beirut and Jouniya began.[1][2][3]

Palestinian emissaries came on January 15, 1976, incite the Mohammedans of Kab - Elias against the "disbelievers" with whom they have coexisted for several generations. [4]
