The statement that "according to the international community, the Gaza Strip is still considered to be occupied by Israel" is unhelpfully vague (the "international community" by which definition?), and the section ignores the view of international law scholars who dispute that Gaza remains occupied. These include, e.g., Marko Milanovic, Hanne Cuyckens, Yuval Shany, Ruth Lapidoth, Eyal Benvenisti, Eugene Kontorovich. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.20.237.210 ( talk) 14:49, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

It is this direct external control over Gaza and indirect control over life within Gaza that has led the United Nations, the UN General Assembly, the UN Fact Finding Mission to Gaza, International human rights organisations, US Government websites, the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office and a significant number of legal commentators, to reject the argument that Gaza is no longer occupied.
Even after the accession to power of Hamas, Israel's claim that it no longer occupies Gaza has not been accepted by UN bodies, most States, nor the majority of academic commentators because of its exclusive control of its border with Gaza and crossing points including the effective control it exerted over the Rafah crossing until at least May 2011, its control of Gaza's maritime zones and airspace which constitute what Aronson terms the 'security envelope' around Gaza, as well as its ability to intervene forcibly at will in Gaza.
In other words, while Israel maintained that its occupation of Gaza ended with its unilateral disengagement Palestinians – as well as many human right organizations and international bodies – argued that Gaza was by all intents and purposes still occupied.
The map should be updated to show that the Gaza Strip is not governed by the Palestinian government Shaked13 ( talk) 17:21, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
It seems that al Hamma was a Palestinian territory under Syrian military occupation till 1967. It's mentionned together with the West Bank and the Gaza Strip in the Palestinian covenant of 1964 (art. 24 of the covenant). Hence this area should technically be included in the "occupied territories" considered by resolution 242 of UN Security council. Unlike West Bank and Gaza strip, it's not included in the Arab state according to the Palestine plan of partition dated 1947, but UN SC resolution 242 does not refer to this previous plan of partition.
