Palestinians who fled during al-Nakba still carry the keys to their homes. For Palestinians in diaspora, the key represents their legal right of return. The right of return is an important principle that is safeguarded by international law and promises Palestinian refugees, both first-generation refugees and their descendants, a right to return to the property they or their forebears were forced to leave behind in what is now Israel.Collection
