Best Answer

The Palestinian Territories is a term used to refer to the areas of the former British Mandate of Palestine that were not under Israeli or Syrian control by the end of the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9. They would eventually be considered the grounds upon which an independent Arab Palestinian State would be founded.


The territories include: the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem (including the Old City of Jerusalem).
