As the conflict in Gaza continues, the occupied West Bank faces ongoing assaults by Israeli forces, resulting in the deaths of over 700 people since October 7.
Despite the geographical proximity between Gaza and the West Bank, Israeli restrictions have long hindered travel and interaction between the two regions. To shed light on the living conditions and restrictions faced by Palestinians in the West Bank, here is a visual overview.
The West Bank, including East Jerusalem, spans 2,183sq miles, making it significantly larger than the Gaza Strip. It is comparable in size to locations like Delaware in the US and Bali in Indonesia.
The West Bank is named after its location on the western side of the Jordan River. This fertile land makes up 30% of the West Bank and is significant for agriculture.
The West Bank is home to approximately 3.3 million Palestinians and is divided into 11 governorates. Additionally, around 700,000 Israelis reside in illegal settlements on Palestinian land.
