The Arab-Israeli War (1948-1949) refers to the conflict that began after the end of the British Mandate for Palestine and the declaration of the State of Israel in May 1948. This war resulted in Israel's victory and the creation of the Palestinian refugee problem in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The United Nations approved Resolution 194 after the war, directing that the refugees had to be given the option of returning to Israel if they wished to do so.1
