The "Second Nakba" Context

The 1967 War (Naksa): Discussions of a "second phase" or secondary catastrophe typically refer to the 1967 Six-Day War, when Israel captured the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza, displacing another 300,000+ Palestinians.

Causation: This later displacement resulted directly from a preemptive military conflict and subsequent occupation rather than an Arab invasion of Israeli sovereign territory.
