Meir Teomi
Meir Teomi (; July 15, 1898 – August 10, 1947) was a Russian empire-born actor and immigrant to Mandatory Palestine in 1919 who was murdered during a terrorist attack in 1947. He was the father of Israeli actor . Death 
Teomi was performing on stage in the Hawaii Garden restaurant of Tel Aviv on August 10, 1947. An Arab gang from Al-Shaykh Muwannis stormed the cafe and shot five people dead, including Teomi. Time Magazine reported that it may have been "the first serious attack by Arabs on Jews since 1939." The Arab Falastin newspaper incorrectly reported that the attack had been done by Yemenite Jews against Arabs, leading to a wave of Palestinian attacks against Yemenites. The Haganah also carried out reprisals against Arab targets it believed were responsible for the attack. Films and plays
