Great March of Return

In March of 2018, Palestinians in Gaza began holding massive, daily demonstrations at the Israeli-imposed border, calling for Israel to respect their right to return home, as protected by international law. 85% of the two million Palestinians held in Gaza are refugees from other parts of Palestine. By the end of 2019, Israeli forces killed 214 protestors (including 46 children) and wounded over 36,000. (see also Right of Return and the Nakba)
