A Palestinian refugee, Ahmad Abd al-Ghani al-Akhras, 70 years old, from the Rafah refugee camp, sits in front of his house on May 10, 2011. Palestinians commemorate the 63rd anniversary of Nakba, or catastrophe, the Arabic term used to describe the uprooting of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with the 1948 creation of the state of Israel. Israel will mark this week 63 years since the founding of the state. Photo by Abed Rahim Khatib
