The Palestinian Mission to Tokyo hosted a lecture titled “75 Years after the Nakba: The Current Situation in Palestine” on Tuesday, which was delivered by Toshikuni Doi, a Japanese journalist and professor.
Doi’s work is focused on Palestine and its history, culture and current events. His portfolio includes the documentaries “Living in the Gaza Strip,” “The West Bank,” and “Breaking the Silence.” Through his films, he has shed light on the oppression faced by Palestinians, including the confiscation of their land and water resources by Israel.
Prof. Hiroyuki Suzuki, the Sultan Qaboos Chair in Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Tokyo’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies, said that Palestine continues to be under occupation 75 years after The Nakba, and its general population faces increasingly difficult circumstances, especially following the formation of the new Israeli government at the end of last year.
During the lecture, Doi provided an update on the current situation of the Palestinian people and the suffering they endure due to Israel’s apartheid-like policies.
