History

Historical Context

The 1948 Arab-Israeli War resulted in the displacement of over 700,000 Palestinians, establishing a long-standing conflict over territory and statehood. The ongoing violence in Gaza, which escalated after Hamas's surprise attack on Israel in October 2023, reflects decades of unresolved issues, including humanitarian crises and international responses, such as arms embargoes from Spain and recognition of Palestinian statehood by the UK and Canada.
