What is Settlements?Israeli settlements are civilian communities inhabited by Israeli citizens, almost exclusively of Jewish ethnicity. The settlements are built predominantly on lands within the Palestinian territories, which Israel has militarily occupied since the 1967 Six-Day War, and partly on lands considered Syrian territory also militarily occupied by Israel since the 1967 war. Such settlements within Palestinian territories currently exist in Area C of the West Bank and in East Jerusalem, and within Syrian territory in the Golan Heights.
