Taken in 1980, this photograph shows a part of the tour of Bassam Shakaa, mayor of Nablus, of Britain on the sidelines of his trip to the country for treatment, in the wake of the Israeli Occupation Authorities' attempt to assassinate him, leading to the amputation of his legs on 2 June of the same year. Enaya al-Fassed, Bassam Shakaa's wife, appears in the photograph along with the pro-Palestine British actress Vanessa Redgrave during the screening of a film by Redgrave at a cinema in London.
