On Balfour Declaration anniversary, Arab statement calls on Britain for historic step toward Palestine

Palestine ·

The Arab League called on Britain and the international community to step up pressure on Israel to end its occupation. It stressed the need for an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.

The Balfour Declaration was a 1917 British letter expressing support for a Jewish national home in Palestine, a document Palestinians and Arabs regard as the origin of their dispossession.
