00:00 Palestinians rally in Ramallah to mark the 76th anniversary of their Nakba or catastrophe.
00:05 During the 1948 war that followed Israel's creation, around 760,000 Palestinians were
00:11 driven from their homes and many took refuge in what would later become the Gaza Strip
00:15 and the West Bank.
00:17 Sirens have gone off throughout Palestinian cities for 76 seconds marking the 76th year
00:21 that has passed since the 1948 catastrophe.
00:25 As the sirens went off in Ramallah, everyone fell silent and raised two fingers in the
00:29 year as a sign of victory and a month of peace.
