Khaled was born in 1944 in Haifa, Palestine. Her family was forced to flee their home during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, and she grew up in refugee camps in Lebanon. From a young age, Khaled was exposed to the violence and oppression of the Israeli occupation. She joined the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) in 1967, and soon became one of the organization's most active members.
In 1969, Khaled participated in the hijacking of an Israeli airliner. The hijacking was a success, and Khaled became a hero to the Palestinian people. She went on to participate in several other hijackings, and her actions helped to raise awareness of the Palestinian cause around the world.
