Day of Revenge

The Day of Revenge (Arabic: يوم الانتقام Yūm al-Intiqāmi) was a Libyan holiday celebrating the expulsion of Italians from Libyan soil in 1970. Some sources also claim that the 1948–67 departure of Libyan Jews was also celebrated.^[1]

It was canceled in 2004 after Silvio Berlusconi apologized for Italian colonization in Libya, but reintroduced the next year.^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] Later, it was renamed the Day of Friendship because of improvement in Italy–Libya relations.^[6]^[7]^[8]
