Al-Difa' (Arabic: الدفاع, romanizedal-Difāʻ, lit.'The Defense') was a Palestinian daily newspaper published from 1934 to 1971 with some interruptions. It was one of the most influential newspapers of the period along with Falastin, and their rivalry marked the mandate period. The paper was based in Jaffa, Mandatory Palestine, until 1948. Then it was published in East Jerusalem and later in Amman. The paper also enjoyed popular support during this period.[1]
