This timeline of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict lists events from 1948 to the present. The Israeli–Palestinian conflict emerged from intercommunal conflict in Mandatory Palestine between Palestinian Jews and Arabs, often described as the background to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. The conflict in its modern phase evolved since the declaration of the State of Israel on May 14, 1948 and consequent intervention of Arab armies on behalf of the Palestinian Arabs.

Background

Israel gained independence on May 14, 1948, while a Palestinian attempt to establish a state in the Gaza Strip in September 1948 under an Egyptian protectorate failed, being de facto managed by Egyptian military and announced dissolved in 1959.

Two weeks later, Hezbollah, supported by Iran and Syria, attacked Israel across the internationally recognized Israeli–Lebanese border, killing eight soldiers and kidnapping two, simultaneously launching a barrage of rockets against civilian towns in northern Israel.

"First, because the Etzel [Irgun] had been shelling Jaffa for three weeks before the Haganah entered, making the Arabs very much afraid; some already began to leave as a result of that shelling by Etzel!' Second, "there were rumours, based on the Etzel's reputation," that "the min-ute the Jews entered the town, the inhabitants would all be slaugh-tered!,s5 The Irgun fired at fleeing residents. 56 The Pal mach was the military force primarily responsible for the Galilee, and its commander, Moshe Dayan, said that the new state must be "homogeneous," with as few Arabs as possible. 57 From many villages in the Galilee the Palmach removed entire popula-tions by force.

ISBN 978-0-8223-3539-9. he panic flight was caused both by "the repute which propaganda had bestowed" on the Irgun, and by the scale of the bombardment, accord-ing to Irgun leader Begin.54 Shmuel Toledano, a Haganah intelligence officer who would later be a member of Israel's parliament (Knesset), recited the same two reasons for the Arab flight from Jaffa. "First, because the Etzel [Irgun] had been shelling Jaffa for three weeks before the Haganah entered, making the Arabs very much afraid; some already began to leave as a result of that shelling by Etzel!' Second, "there were rumours, based on the Etzel's reputation," that "the min-ute the Jews entered the town, the inhabitants would all be slaugh-tered!,s5 The Irgun fired at fleeing residents. 56 The Pal mach was the military force primarily responsible for the Galilee, and its commander, Moshe Dayan, said that the new state must be "homogeneous," with as few Arabs as possible. 57 From many villages in the Galilee the Palmach removed entire popula-tions by force.
