The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, rooted in territorial disputes and national aspirations, is the conflict that ensued directly as a result of Israel's establishment in 1948. The establishment of Israel led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, leading to longstanding grievances and disputes over land and self-determination. This conflict has resulted in numerous wars, violence, and ongoing tensions in the region, impacting not only Israel and Palestine but also the broader Middle East. The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict remains a central issue in the region and has significant implications for global peace and security.
