Introduction
Pre-1947: British control
1947-1949: Israel founded
1967: Six-Day War
Jerusalem: Before 1967 & now
West Bank: Autonomy & population
West Bank: Settlements & checkpoints
Gaza: Population and security
Jerusalem: Before 1967 The armistice line drawn at the end of the 1948 war divided Jerusalem into two. Between 1949 and 1967, Israel controlled the western part of Jerusalem, while Jordan took the eastern part, including the old walled city containing important Jewish, Muslim and Christian religious sites.
Jerusalem: After 1967 Israel captured the whole of Jerusalem in 1967 and extended the city's municipal boundaries, putting both East and West Jerusalem under its sovereignty and civil law. In 1980 Israel passed a law making its annexation of East Jerusalem explicit. The city's status remains disputed, with Israel's occupation of East Jerusalem considered illegal under international law. Israel is determined that Jerusalem be its undivided capital, while Palestinians are seeking to establish their capital in East Jerusalem.
