Palestinians hold a flag during in a procession on the 68th anniversary of the "Nakba" in the West Bank city of Ramallah on May 15, 2016. "Nakba" means in Arabic "catastrophe" in reference to the birth of the state of Israel 68-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. The key symbolises the homes left by Palestinians in 1948. Photo by Shadi Hatem
