Every year on May 15, Palestinians mark the Nakba, which literally translates as “The Catastrophe.”
It refers to the uprooting and mass exodus of over 700,000 Palestinians from their homes — an organised system of expulsion that many say amounted to ethnic cleansing.
In this video, Islam Channel’s NewsTalk presenter Aaqil Ahmed looks at how the Nakba came about and how it continues to define the very existence of Palestinians today.
The mainstream media has been justifying genocide in Gaza. Islamophobia and censorship are the norm. We're changing that. Our journalism has reached over 300M impressions on social media since October 7th. On TV, our rolling news coverage has featured key figures like Husam Zomlot, Avi Shlaim, Gideon Levy and Jeremy Corbyn.
