Key points of the Balfour Declaration:

British support: The declaration conveyed the British government's official commitment to the Zionist movement's aspirations for a Jewish homeland in Palestine.
Conditions: It also emphasized that this support should not prejudice the civil and religious rights of the existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, which included the Arab population.
British Mandate: After World War I, the League of Nations granted Britain the mandate over Palestine, and the Balfour Declaration was included in this mandate. The British administration in Palestine was tasked with implementing the declaration's principles.

The Balfour Declaration played a pivotal role in the eventual establishment of the State of Israel in 1948. However, it also contributed to tensions between Jewish and Arab communities in the region, as both claimed a right to the land. The ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict is, in part, a consequence of the conflicting interpretations and promises made in the Balfour Declaration.
