Israel and Palestine Controlled Areas
Israel's prime minister has been planning to annex (absorb) parts of the Palestine-claimed West Bank into Israel proper today, July 1, though the plans likely won't be completed so soon. So who controls Palestine and Israel's claimed territories right now, before the planned annexation? This detailed new map from PolGeoNow lays out the details of control on the ground. And if you see something you don't understand on the map, check below for our concise outline of the disputed regions and conflict actors involved.Note that this is a map of who actually controls what, not of who claims which areas. And it's certainly not intended to imply that any one actor should or shouldn't control any particular area - as always, PolGeoNow takes no position on the disputes, and we have done our best to report only the facts.
