The Israeli-Palestinian conflict dates back to the late 19th century when Zionists sought to establish a homeland for the Jewish people in Ottoman-controlled Palestine. The conflict has its roots in the rise of national movements, including Zionism and Arab nationalism, and the Balfour Declaration of 1917, which announced support for the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine. The establishment of Israel in 1948, and the war that followed and preceded it, led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who became refugees, sparking a decades-long conflict between Israel and the Palestinian people.

Here is a brief timeline of the history between Palestine and Israel:

• 1917: The Balfour Declaration is issued, announcing support for the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine.
• 1947: The United Nations adopts Resolution 181, known as the Partition Plan, which sought to divide the British Mandate of Palestine into Arab and Jewish states.
• 1948: The State of Israel is created, sparking the first Arab-Israeli War. The war ends in 1949 with Israel’s victory, but 750,000 Palestinians are displaced, and the territory is divided into 3 parts: the State of Israel, the West Bank (of the Jordan River), and the Gaza Strip.
• 1967: In the Six-Day War, Israel occupies East Jerusalem and the West Bank, as well as most of the Syrian Golan Heights, Gaza, and the Egyptian Sinai peninsula.
• 1987-1993: The First Intifada, a Palestinian uprising against Israeli occupation, takes place.
• 1993: The Oslo Accords are signed, which aim to establish a framework for peace between Israel and Palestine.
• 2000: The Second Intifada begins, which lasts until 2005 and results in the deaths of thousands of Palestinians and Israelis.
• 2005: Israel withdraws from the Gaza Strip, but maintains control over its borders and airspace.
• 2006: Hamas, a Palestinian Islamist political organization, wins a majority in the Palestinian legislative elections.
• 2008-2009: Israel launches a military operation in the Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of over 1,000 Palestinians and 13 Israelis.
• 2014: Another military operation takes place in the Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of over 2,000 Palestinians and 73 Israelis[[2]](...
