West Bank is a short reference to areas on the West Bank of the Jordan River, known in Biblical terms as Judea and Samaria, which were originally assigned to Jordan by the 1948 United Nations resolution that partitioned the British Mandate of Palestine. They were captured by Israel in the 1967 Arab-Israeli War, and remain under Israeli control.
