when did the war between israel and palestine start
History of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict This conflict came from the intercommunal violence in Mandatory Palestine between Israelis and Arabs from 1920 and erupted into full-scale hostilities in the 1947–48 civil war. The conflict continues to the present day on various levels.
Israel In 1947, the United Nations adopted a Partition Plan for Palestine recommending the creation of independent Arab and Jewish states and an internationalized Jerusalem.[29] The plan was accepted by the Jewish Agency for Palestine, and rejected by Arab leaders.[30][31][32] The following year, the Jewish Agency declared the independence of the State of Israel, and the subsequent 1948 Arab–Israeli War saw Israel's establishment over most of the former Mandate territory, while the West Bank and Gaza were held by neighboring Arab states.[33] Israel has since fought several wars with Arab countries,[34] and it has since 1967 occupied territories including the West Bank, Golan Heights and the Gaza Strip (still considered occupied after 2005 disengagement, although some legal experts, dispute this claim).[35][36][37][fn 3] It extended its laws to the Golan Heights and East Jerusalem, but not the West Bank.[38][39][40][41] Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories is the world's longest military occupation in modern times.[fn 3][43] Efforts to resolve the Israeli–Palestinian conflict have not resulted in peace. However, peace treaties between Israel and both Egypt and Jordan have been signed.
