Israeli occupation
The Israeli occupation refers to Israel's control over Palestinian territories, specifically the West Bank and Gaza Strip, following the 1967 Six-Day War. This situation has led to ongoing conflict, as many Palestinians seek statehood and self-determination. The occupation involves military governance, settlement expansion, and restrictions on movement and access for Palestinians. This has sparked significant international debate and varying perspectives on legality, human rights, and the path to peace. Many view it as an impediment to a two-state solution, where both Israelis and Palestinians would have their own sovereign nations.
