The Balfour Declaration was a public statement that announced support for the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine then later in Ottoman, and this declaration was announced during WW 1.
Hope this helps. :)

Balfour Declaration. ... The declaration was contained in a letter dated 2 November 1917 from the United Kingdom's Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour to Lord Rothschild, a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland.
