Six-Day War's Impact
- In 1967, the Six-Day War drastically altered the landscape of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
- Israel's victory resulted in its control over territories previously held by Arab nations, including the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip.
Displacement and Disputed Occupation
- The Six-Day War led to another refugee crisis, displacing over 200,000 Palestinians.
- The international community largely did not recognize Israel's claim to the newly occupied territories.
Jewish Settlements and Palestinian Displacement
- Jewish settlements, residential areas primarily for Jews, were established in occupied territories.
- This led to displacement of Palestinians and remains a contentious issue due to disputes over land ownership.
