INFOGRAPHIC: The Forced Exile of Palestinians

Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Palestine, Digital Activism, History, Human Rights, War & Conflict

In commemoration of Nakba Day [1], the ‘Visualizing Palestine’ graphic team have released their latest infographic entitled “An ongoing displacement [2]” which “quantitatively catalogues the multiple dimensions of Palestinian displacement and loss of land.”

On their Facebook page, they wrote [3] :

May 15th marks the 65th anniversary of the Nakba – when 750,000 Palestinians were displaced from the territory that became Israel. In 1948, more than 50% of the entire Palestinian population was ethnically cleansed.

In commemoration of the Nakba, and the displacement that continues today, we are releasing ‘An Ongoing Displacement’. The new visual quantitatively catalogues the multiple dimensions of Palestinian displacement and loss of land.
