Removed this: Rutenberg also became the first Palestinian citizen under the British Mandate, after the British had enacted a law creating Palestinian citizenship in 1925. Rutenberg received his citizenship papers in January 1926.[1]
This is impossible since the 1925 Citizenship Order gave immediate citizenship to a large number of people. What might be possible is that he was the first foreign-born person to get citizenship by naturalization. This is suggested by the words "first nationalized [sic] Palestinian citizen" in the source. Alternatively, he could have been the first foreign-born Jew to get citizenship by naturalization. This is suggested by the words "first of the returning Jews to acquire citizenship" in the source (and ignoring other people would be normal for this time and source). Since my proposed solutions to the impossible are just my theories, I think we can't have this at all without a better source.
