Palestine hails UN decision to commemorate Nakba for 1st time

Palestine hails UN decision to commemorate Nakba for 1st time

Palestinians have hailed the United Nations’ choice to commemorate the Nakba or the Catastrophe for the primary time this yr.

Earlier Saturday media reviews advised that the U.N. was planning to commemorate May 15 as Nakba Day, marking the creation of the state of Israel in historic Palestine, for the primary time in 2023.

“Commemorating the Nakba must be at the top of our priorities in order to preserve our narrative, which we must adhere to and convey to the whole world,” the Palestinian WAFA news company quoted Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas as saying.

Abbas urged all Palestinians to commemorate the Palestinian tragedy of 1948 “to confront all lies and false narratives that attempt to distort history and facts.”

Nakba Day is marked yearly by Palestinians on May 15 to recollect the expulsion of a whole bunch of 1000’s of Palestinians from their houses and areas in 1948 after the founding of Israel.

“What Palestinians everywhere are required to do is to commemorate this tragedy, because it is the first time that the global community does not deny the Nakba,” stated Abbas.

“On these blessed days, we call on all our people to stand together to face the challenges facing our cause, our land and our sanctities, and to focus our compass towards confronting the occupation and getting rid of it,” he added.
