What is the Palestinian Nakba and why is it so relevant?

The Nakba, meaning "catastrophe," refers to the displacement of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, resulting in approximately 700,000 refugees. Palestinians commemorate this loss on Nakba Day, protesting their displacement and seeking the right to return to their homeland. Despite UN resolutions, the right to return remains a contentious issue, with potential solutions like the two-state solution facing challenges.
