After the Six-Day War in June 1967, Israel occupied Hebron along with the rest of the West Bank, establishing a military government to rule the area

In 1997 an agreement was reached between the Palestine Liberation Organization and Israel and Hebron was divided into two sections separated by barricades and checkpoints: H1, about 80 percent of the city, fell under the control of the Palestinian Authority, while Israel maintained control over H2, which contained significant parts of the commercial center as well as the Israeli settlements, considered illegal under international law.
