Nakba (arabisk: النكبة, "katastrofen") er den arabiske benævnelse på fordrivelsen af palæstinenserne. Grundlæggelsen af staten Israel i 1948 regnes som begyndelsen på Nakba, og 15. maj (Israels uafhængighedsdag) er derfor en vigtig mindedag i den palæstinensiske kalender.

Jaramana refugee camp after the Naksa.jpg Description from source: "This UNRWA administered tented camp near Damascus provided temporary shelter for some 3,200 homeless Palestine Arab refugees. As a result of the June 1967 hostilities in the Middle East, 117,500 people were displaced from the Quneitra region of Syria, which was occupied by Israel; among them were 17,500 Palestine refugees registered with UNRWA. Those displaced refugees, unable to find shelter for themselves, numbering over 10,000 persons have been accommodated in four emergency camps near Damascus & Dera'a. The tents have been replaced by more permanent shelters." Photographer: Jack Madvo, 1974. UNRWA Collection, Institute for Palestine Studies, Beirut."
