Many Palestinians were driven from their villages during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Yamnah Ibrahim Harab, 95, reaches to hold the key to her old house in northern Israel that her family fled in 1948.

As Israelis celebrate the 60th anniversary of their nation's founding, Palestinians commemorate and remember the time as 'the catastrophe,' nakba, which resulted in the displacement of hundreds of thousands, and the destruction of Palestinian culture.
