The core of the long-lasting Palestinian-Israeli conflict is essentially a struggle over land. Palestinians are seeking recognition of their independent state proclaimed in 1988 on the territories of West Bank, which Israel calls Judea and Samaria Area, as well as East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli government refuses to recognize Palestine as an independent political and diplomatic entity.
The conflict escalated in 2014, when Israel launched a military operation against Hamas forces, which control Gaza, killing thousands of civilians. In August, the sides agreed to a ceasefire, which proved fragile.
