Palestinians read old documents that written before the Nakba, during a historical documents gallery in Gaza city on May 14, 2015. ''Nakba'' means in Arabic ''catastrophe'' in reference to the birth of the state of Israel 67-years-ago in British-mandate Palestine, which led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who either fled or were driven out of their homes during the 1948 war over Israel's creation.
