The West Bank (Jordan) and the Golan Heights (Syria), both taken in the Six Day War in 1967. The Gaza strip is no longer an occupied territory. The West Bank has three types of Areas: A;B;C. Area A - full control of the Palestinian Authority. Area B - Palestinian civil control and Israeli security control. Area C - full Israeli control, except over Palestinian civilians. While the vast majority of the Palestinian population lives in areas A and B, the vacant land available for construction in dozens of villages and towns across the West Bank is situated on the margins of the communities and defined as area C. The Palestinian Authority has full civil control in area A, area B is characterized by joint-administration between the PA and Israel, while area C is under full Israeli control. Israel maintains overall control over Israeli settlements, roads, water, airspace, "external" security and borders for the entire territory.
There is only one Palestinian Territory currently under Israeli control and that is the West Bank. The Gaza Strip, which was previously under Israeli control is now completely under the control of Hamas, a Palestinian Organization.
The Gaza Strip and the West Bank
West Bank & Gaza
The Gaza Strip and The West Bank area.
Palestinians who fled from the territories that Israel occupied.
The people living in Gaza are Palestinians (the original people of the Palestine Country before Israel establishment in the area). Gaza together the West bank are parts of the Palestinian territory, currently occupied by Israel, after war of June 1967. refer to related question for more information.
The Palestinians were driven out to occupied territories such as the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Some of them were able to move into surrounding countries but most weren't welcomed there.
The question conflates two different events.Expulsion/Flight: In the Jewish-Arab Engagement of 1947-9, around 720,000 Palestinians fled the nascent state of Israel and built refugee camps in other Arab countries. However, while this war expanded on the area provided to Israel by the UNGA Resolution 181 (II), the additional areas are not designated as unique regions.Taking of Two Regions: In the Six Day War of 1967, Israel conquered several regions which included the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. These are two regions associated with Palestinians. Nobody really fled from Gaza, but 300,000 Palestinians fled from West Bank into Jordan. However, most of these refugees either joined the camps that already existed from 1949 or they (illegally) integrated into the normal Jordanian population, but with severely limited rights.
Many do, but the majority do not.

The British Mandate of Palestine covered all of current day Israel (including the occupied territories) and Jordan, as well as parts of Syria. Currently however, the term Palestine refers to the Occupied Territories where Israel has put the Palestinians previously occupying what is now Israel. The Israeli Defense Forces controls Palestine with an iron fist, though recently there has been efforts to bring the Palestinian Authority to power. This has not been successful as of yet because of many things, among them Israel's want for an Israeli Jerusalem without Palestinians and Israel's wants for better safety for their citizens (leading to much worse safety for Palestinians).
The Golan Heights.

The Israel-Palestinian peace agreement is a two-state solution, but currently it is still in the works.
Palestinians come from Palestine.The Palestinians originated from the ancient country of Palestine. Palestine is located in modern-day Israel, the geographical region between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. Basically, it is the Muslim counterpart of the Jewish Israel.
They are seeking a home in the territory that once constituted the Mandate of Palestine and is currently controlled by the State of Israel.
It depends on what your metric is for determining "better".Answer 1There are far many more civil rights in Israel (even for the Occupied Palestinians) than exist in Iran. That makes Israel better in my opinion.
Marwan Darweish has written: 'The influence of the Intifada on Palestinians in Israel' 'Palestinians in Israel'
It depends on how they make that claim. Bedouin and Druze claim that Israel belongs to them as much as it belongs to the Jews and proudly call themselves Bedouin Israelis and Druze Israelis. A number of Arabs who formerly lived in what is now Israel or the Occupied Territories claim that the Jewish State is illegitimate and demand that country be returned to them for administration. These individuals are called Palestinians. (Admittedly, a number of Palestinians are willing to allow Israel to exist outside of the Occupied Territories, but there is no difference in naming between the Two-Staters and the One-Staters.)
With the civil war ended in 1948, the Palestinians still occupied a small proportion of their former territory - the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. the Israelis did not give these territories to the Palestinians, since they had not yet conquered them.
