⭐ Core Definition: List of cities in Palestine

The following is the list of cities in Palestine. After the 1995 Interim Agreements, the Palestinian National Authority, which was renamed to the State of Palestine in 2013, took control of civil affairs in the West Bank Palestinian enclaves, designated Areas A and B, where most Palestinian population centers are located (and excluding those within the municipal borders of East Jerusalem). Israel Defense Forces are responsible for security in Area B in the West Bank and have full control over localities in Area C.

Following the 2007 rift between the main two Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas, the Palestinian Authority (PA) has been split, with the former dominating the Palestinian government in the West Bank and the latter controlling the Gaza Strip.
