Since the Palestinian Nakba on 1948, and because of displacement and settlement of the Israeli occupation state, the Palestinians who are estimated with 12.7 million, were dispersed as refugees and migrants around the world.
About half the Palestinians live in historic Palestine, under Israeli occupation. Third of the Palestinian refugees registered in The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), or over 1.4 million refugees, live in 58 recognized refugee camps in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Gaza strip, and West Bank including East Jerusalem, while the rest is distributed around different countries of the world.
