A group of Iraqi Palestinian refugees had an emotional reunion with family members who have settled in Sydney.

They say they have suffered great human rights violations in Iraq, especially since the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003.

SBS Reporter Suheil Damouny listened to their stories.

For Palestinians around the world, Nakba Day, commemorated annually on May 15, marks the displacement that followed the Israeli Declaration of Independence in 1948.
