al Nakba is the term used by Palestinians to refer to the exodus from the British Mandate of Palestine following the 1948 Arab Israeli War. Meaning "the catastrophe," "disaster" or "cataclysm," al Nakba also refers to the 1948 Arab Israeli War itself.
Palestinian Refugees
The United Nations estimated that 711,000 Palestinian Refugees were created by the conflict. The United Nations also classified a quarter of the Palestinians remaining in what is now Israel as internal refugees. The issue of Palestinian Refugees and their Right of Return remains a controversial point in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. Today, Israel enforces a "prevention of infiltration law" that prevents Palestinian Refugees from returning to their old homes. Meanwhile, the number of displaced Palestinians has increased to over 4 million by United Nations estimates and definitions. Supporters of the Right of Return argue that it is defined by international law as a basic and inalienable right.-
