Transcription
I read a different transcription of the name: Ash Schatt. Does anybody now which way is correct? -- Reinhard Dietrich (talk) 11:05, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi Reinhard Dietrich! I've never hear of Ash Schatt. It's was always know as El Shatt (to my knowledge). Sir Floyd (talk) 13:53, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Drvenik Veli - Monument same as in El Shatt
== In this camp were 150 Jews. Rabbi Jacob Goldman (of Jerusalem) who served in the British Army and was stationed in the nearest city of ISMAELIA took care and visited in this camp during the Jewish Holidays מיכל מירושלים (talk) 07:37, 2 October 2019 (UTC)מיכל מירושלים I would like to suggest that Legacy chapter is edited in order to mention monument of "Majka Dalmatinka" (AKA Majka Domovina) and with memorial of engraved full list of people from Dalmatia died in refugee camp of El Shatt

"damaged in the Six-Day War in 1967"
This claim cant be correct as there are images of the statue in Commons that taken in 1969 - Category:Mother of Dalmatia. The statue is undemaged. --geageaTalk 04:22, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, the article doesn't specifically say anything happened to the statue itself. Multiple sources say the cemetery was damaged. The above is indeed the concrete statue, and not the bronze one which was not erected until much later (and looks like this). Since presumably just the bronze statue is left now, and not both of them, something must have happened to the original one. There was also the Yom Kippur War in 1973, but I don't think the El Shatt area was affected by it.
 * I've added the article to my watchlist yesterday, I plan to expand it a bit using sources. GregorB (talk) 13:48, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * The article in he.wiki says that the staue was damaged and the Egyptiens accused that the Israelis damaged the statue in Six Day war (1967). But this claim can't be correct as the old statue is ok in 1969.
 * The photos taken by an Israeli photo agancy that photographed the photos for newspapers. some of the photos were published in papers. The National Library of Israel bought all the photo collection and released them to public domain. part of the photos (24500) uploaded to Commons. In he.wiki we are trying to find what the photos shows. The original description was "IDF in Sinai". --geageaTalk 09:40, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
 * These photos are remarkable, I don't think I've seen them before. In fact, if this area was under Israeli control in 1969, then the destruction of the statue actually might have taken place in 1973 or after that date. (Also note the cemetery had already been vandalized in the 1950s, in peacetime.) It appears to be a remote area, so no witnesses, hard to verify certain events. The article's topic is interesting, I'll try to expand the content. GregorB (talk) 16:43, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
