A look into the long history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict ========== The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has a long history dating back to the early 1900s. In 1917, the Balfour Declaration promised a 'national home' for Jewish populations in Palestine. The region was placed under British rule after World War I, leading to clashes between Palestinian Arabs and Jewish migrants. In 1947, the United Nations adopted a resolution to partition Palestine into two states, leading to the creation of Israel in 1948 and the displacement of Palestinians. The Six-Day War in 1967 resulted in Israel capturing Palestinian territories. In 1987, the first Palestinian uprising occurred, followed by a second uprising in 2000. Israel disengaged from the Gaza Strip in 2005, leading to Hamas taking control. The ongoing conflict has resulted in thousands of deaths and has led to humanitarian concerns in Gaza. In 2023, Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, resulting in a bombing campaign and siege of Gaza. #IsraelipalestinianConflict #History #BalfourDeclaration #Partition #SixdayWar #Uprising #GazaStrip #Hamas https://abcnews.go.com/International/timeline-long-history-israeli-palestinian-conflict/story?id=103875134
