The Origin Story of the Israel-Palestine Conflict
· World · Times of India
The Israel-Palestine conflict stems from a century of competing national claims, territorial disputes, and diplomatic interventions following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Decades of displacement, wars, and failed peace accords have entrenched deep divisions over land, sovereignty, and security in the region. The October 7 attacks and the subsequent military campaign in Gaza represent one of the most violent escalations in this protracted struggle. The historical roots of the conflict involve complex mandates, refugee crises, and unresolved questions regarding statehood and borders.
