Israeli Settlement and Annexation Patterns in the Oslo-Defined Area "C"

This map illustrates land classification in the Oslo-defined Area "C" of the West Bank, in the context of Israeli Government Resolution No. 3559 from February 2026. The land registration process in Area "C" is a strategic move aimed at consolidating Israeli control over extensive areas of Palestinian land. These new settlement procedures violate the interim agreements established under the Oslo framework and contribute to a gradual de facto annexation. This undermines Palestinian property rights, prejudges final status issues, and threatens the viability of a negotiated two-State solution.
