The 15th of May was the 68th anniversary Al Nakba, the day in 1948 that officially marks the dispossession of Palestinians from their lands by Zionist colonisers. Over 500 Palestinian villages were affected and 750,000 Palestinians became refugees. Events were held all around the world to seek justice and redress for this exodus, and demonstrate that Palestinians are still fighting. Within Israel, events were also held in the Negev desert where dispossession of Palestinian lands continue.
