Palestinians in Jerusalem, in Gaza, throughout Palestine and in exile are fighting for their rights and their lives after 73 years of Nakba (the Catastrophe–meaning the founding of Israel).
On May 11 alone, Israeli drone warplanes killed 24 Palestinian civilians, including nine children, in Gaza. Hundreds of Palestinians were injured by Israeli occupation forces, who launched provocative attacks on Al-Aqsa Mosque. Palestinians in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem fought forcible eviction and displacement by settler colonial mobs.
