Israel–Palestine border

The Israel–Palestine border refers to the geographic boundary between Israel and the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. These borders are complex due to historical conflicts, negotiations, and agreements aiming for a two-state solution—an independent Palestine alongside Israel. The borders are not universally agreed upon and have shifted over time through wars, treaties, and disputes. Key issues include settlement locations, Jerusalem’s status, and security concerns, making the border a central element in ongoing peace efforts. It reflects deep political, religious, and cultural histories shaping the region’s present and future.
