The West Bank is certainly being fought over. There is a Palestinian Government (the Palestinian Authority) which claims the territory of the West Bank to be its sovereign land and an occupying Israeli Government (the State of Israel) that claims stewardship of the territory pending a final treaty or similar agreement. The two sides occasionally clash over these views.

As for the Gaza Strip, while it is certainly true that fighting between the Hamas government and the Israeli government occurs in and around the Gaza Strip, it is not being fought over. This is to say that the Israeli government makes no claim to the territory in the Gaza Strip. Therefore it is exclusively Palestinian Territory. Also, the last remnant of Fatah in Gaza was excised in 2007, so there is no intra-Palestinian fighting either for control of the territory.
