Based on 2021 estimates, Palestinians in historic Palestine are estimated at 6.965 million, constituting 49.8% of Palestinians worldwide. Palestinians in the 1967 occupied territories are estimated at 5.291 million and constitute 37.8% of Palestinians worldwide, while Palestinians in territories occupied in 1948 (Israel) are estimated at 1.674 million, constituting around 12% of Palestinians worldwide (see table 1/2).

Examining the Israeli GDP at current prices, which reached $407.78 billion in 2020 and $481.3 billion in 2021, we notice that it is more than 26 times the size of its Palestinian counterpart in 2020 and more than 27 times in 2021.
