Al-Hadaf

Al-Hadaf (Arabic: الهدف), (English: The Target) is a Palestinian weekly political and cultural magazine published in Gaza City, Palestine.

Established in 1969 the magazine was headquartered in several cities, including Beirut and Damascus.

Al Hadaf was founded in Beirut in 1969[1][2] by Ghassan Kanafani as the political mouthpiece of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP),[3][4] espousing a Marxist–Leninist version of pan-Arab Palestinian nationalism.

[6] In 1972, Kanafani was killed by a car bomb, but Al Hadaf remains in publication.

[1][7][8] The headquarters of the magazine was moved to Damascus, Syria, in 1986 where it was subject to the strict censorship of the Syrian government.
