In Numbers: How Israeli Occupation Controls The Land In The Occupied West Bank

A few weeks ago, US ambassador to Israel said: “Israel controls only 2 percent of the West Bank.”

 In order to show the facts to the Ambassador of the United States and the world, we provide the following figures:

1.5% of the West Bank is part of settlement construction area.

9.5% of the West Bank is within the areas of settlement influence.

18% of the West Bank has been designated by Israeli as “military training zones”.

32% of the West Bank has been classified by Israel as closed military zones.

47% of the West Bank is within the jurisdiction of six Israeli regional councils in the West Bank.

61% of Area C is under Israeli civil full control and no single stone can be built without Israeli approval.

100% of the West Bank is under full Israeli military control.
