The Arab–Israeli conflict (Arabic: الصراع العربي الإسرائيلي‎, translit. Al-Sira'a Al'Arabi Al-Israili; Hebrew: הסכסוך הישראלי-ערבי‎, translit. Ha'Sikhsukh Ha'Yisraeli-Aravi) is the political tension, military conflicts and disputes between a number of Arab countries and Israel. The roots of the ongoing Arab–Israeli conflict is attributed to the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism towards the end of the 19th century. Part of the dispute arises from the conflicting claims to the land. Territory regarded by the Jewish people as their ancestral homeland is at the same time regarded by the Pan-Arab movement as historically and currently belonging to the Palestinians, and in the Pan-Islamic context, as Muslim lands.
