The #UN will commemorate #Nakba Day for the first time this year, marking the 75th anniversary of the Palestinian mass displacement, in a high-level special meeting on 15 May 2023. Nakba Day, or ‘catastrophe’ in Arabic, is marked annually by Palestinians on 15 May to remember the mass expulsion of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from their homes in 1948 and the subsequent founding of the state of #Israel. #palestine
