Final answer:
The reaction to the UN resolution for the partition of Palestine resulted in increased tensions, a civil war in Palestine, the establishment of the State of Israel, and the First Arab-Israeli War, leading to refugee crises for Palestinian Arabs. Option b is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The resolution excerpt you provided refers to the United Nations partition plan for Palestine, which was adopted by the UN General Assembly in November 1947 as Resolution 181. This plan recommended the creation of independent Arab and Jewish states and a special international regime for the city of Jerusalem. The actual reaction to the UN resolution was not the peaceful implementation of the resolution but rather increased tensions between the two sides.
In reaction to the UN resolution, a civil war broke out in Palestine as British forces withdrew in May 1948. Subsequently, the Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel was proclaimed on May 14, 1948, which led to the invasion of the newly declared state by neighboring Arab countries. This triggered the First Arab-Israeli War which lasted until March 1949. As a result of the conflict, hundreds of thousands of Palestinian Arabs became refugees.
Ultimately, the tensions and conflicts following the UN resolution demonstrated that the issues at hand were far from settled.
