Palestinians

Palestinians are an ethnic group primarily from the region of Palestine, which includes modern-day Israel and the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. They share a common cultural and historical heritage, with a diverse population that identifies with this identity through language, traditions, and shared experiences. Many Palestinians are descendants of people who lived in the area before the establishment of Israel in 1948, resulting in ongoing conflict over land, rights, and national identity. The Palestinian struggle for self-determination and statehood remains a central issue in Middle Eastern politics today.
