74 years after the creation of Israel, Palestinians in the occupied territory are marking what they call the Nakba, or catastrophe.
The siren sounded for 74 seconds - one for every year since Israel was founded.
The event has taken on even more importance this year after the killing of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh by Israeli forces.
Al Jazeera's Sami Zeidan takes a look at the history of the Nakba and its effect on entire generations.
