90% of Gaza’s population forcibly displaced by Israel

As Palestinians mark the 77th anniversary of their expulsion from their towns in historical Palestine after attacks by Zionist gangs and the creation of the occupation state of Israel, UNRWA said: “In 1948, more than 700,000 Palestinians were displaced from their towns and villages. These events are known as the Nakba.”

“77 years later, Palestinians continue to be forcibly displaced.” The refugee agency said that the Israeli war has forced 90 per cent of the population to flee their homes.

“Some have been displaced 10 times or more.”

Since October 2023, the Israeli army has pursued a brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip, killing more than 53,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children.
