Since June 2007, there have been two separate administrations in Palestine, one in the [[West Bank]] and the other in the [[Gaza Strip]].
The [[Fatah]] [[Fatah government in the West Bank|government in the West Bank]] was generally recognised as the Palestinian Authority Government. The Fatah-dominated [[Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization]] (EC) is the highest executive body of the [[Palestine Liberation Organization]] and acts as the government. On the other hand, the [[Hamas]] [[Hamas government in the Gaza Strip|government in the Gaza Strip]] also claimed to be the legitimate government of the Palestinian Authority.
Until June 2014, when the [[Palestinian Unity Government of June 2014|Palestinian Unity Government]] was formed, the government in the West Bank was the Fatah-dominated [[Palestinian government of 2013]]. In the Gaza Strip, the government was the [[Hamas government of 2012]]. Following two [[2014 Fatah–Hamas Agreements|Fatah–Hamas Agreements in 2014]], on 25 September 2014 Hamas agreed to let the PA Government resume control over the Gaza Strip and its border crossings with Egypt and Israel. However, that agreement had broken down by June 2015, after [[Mahmoud Abbas|President Abbas]] said the PA government was unable to operate in the Gaza Strip.
==History== The following organizations have claimed or exercised authority over the [[Palestinian people]] or a Arab state in [[Palestine]] in the past: *[[Arab Higher Committee]], the central political organ of the Arab community of [[Mandatory Palestine]]. It was established on 25 April 1936 and was sidestepped by the [[All-Palestine Government]] in 1948. **[[Arab Higher Committee#Formation, 1936–1937|First Committee]] 1936-1937 (Arab Higher Committee) **[[Arab Higher Committee#Post-war period|Second Committee]] 1945-1948 (Arab Higher Committee) *[[All-Palestine Government]], a Palestinian entity set-up by the [[Arab League]] in Egypt-occupied Gaza Strip on 22 September 1948. It was dissolved by Egypt in 1959. *[[Palestine Liberation Organization]] has been the official representative of the Palestinian people internationally since 1964. On 22 November 1974, [[United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3236]] recognized the right of the Palestinian people to [[self-determination]], [[Independence|national independence]] and [[sovereignty]] in [[Palestine (region)|Palestine]]. It also recognized the PLO as the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, and accorded it [[United Nations General Assembly observers#Palestine|observer]] status in the United Nations. **[[Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization]] (EC) is the highest executive body of the PLO.<ref name=middleeastmonitor>[https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/news/middle-east/20576-abbas-confirms-resignation-from-plo-executive-committee ''Abbas confirms resignation from PLO Executive Committee''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150910230353/https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/news/middle-east/20576-abbas-confirms-resignation-from-plo-executive-committee |date=2015-09-10 }}.

===PNA governments=== {{main|Politics of the Palestinian National Authority}} [[Palestinian National Authority]] was formally an interim administrative body established by the PLO pursuant to the [[Oslo Accords#Palestinian Authority and Legislative Council|Oslo Accords]] of 1993. Pursuant to the Oslo Accords, the PA Government had only authority over some civil rights of the Palestinians in the [[Palestinian enclaves|West Bank Areas A and B]] and in the Gaza Strip, and over [[Palestinian Security Services|internal security]] in Area A and in Gaza. One of the security tasks was the [[security cooperation between Israel and the Palestinian Authority]], which among other things aimed at the prevention of Palestinian attacks on the Israeli army and settlers. Until 2007 it exercised control of populated areas in Area A and B of the [[West Bank]] and in the [[Gaza Strip]]:
* [[Palestinian Authority Government of 1996]]—formed following the first [[1996 Palestinian general election|general elections held on 20 January 1996]]. It was headed by Chairman of the PLO [[Yasser Arafat]], and functioned until 29 April 2003. * [[Palestinian government of October 2002]] (PNA) * [[Palestinian government of November 2003]] (PNA) * [[Palestinian government of March 2006]] (PNA) * [[Palestinian government of March 2007]] (PNA, unity of Hamas and Fatah)
===Split of Fatah and Hamas=== Since June 2007, the [[Fatah]]-led government has exercised authority in Ramallah, West Bank, and has been recognized as the official government of the Palestinian Authority; while since [[Battle of Gaza (2007)|Hamas took control in the Gaza Strip]], it has exercised ''de facto'' control there, ousting Fatah PNA representatives in June 2007. * [[Fatah government in the West Bank]] ** [[Palestinian Authority Governments of June–July 2007|Palestinian governments of June–July 2007]] (PNA, Fatah) ** [[Palestinian government of 2009]] (PNA, Fatah) ** [[Palestinian governments of 2013]] (PNA, Fatah)—two governments were formed in 2013, in June and September, after the upgrade in the United Nations of Palestine to the status of non-member observer state. Both were led by [[Rami Hamdallah]]. ** [[Palestinian government of 2015]] (PNA, Fatah)—led by Hamdallah. ** [[Palestinian government of 2019]] (PNA, Fatah)—the 18th Palestinian government since the establishment of the PA in 2004, led by [[Mohammad Shtayyeh]], member of the [[Fatah Central Committee]], the 23-member government includes 16 new ministers.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/new-palestinian-government-sworn-in-586728|title=New Palestinian government sworn in|website=The Jerusalem Post |date=13 April 2019 }}</ref> * [[Governance of the Gaza Strip]] ** [[Hamas government of June 2007|First Hamas government]] 2007–12 (Hamas Administration in Gaza) ** [[Hamas government of 2012|Second Hamas government]] September 2012–14 (Hamas Administration in Gaza) ** [[October 2016 Hamas government|Third Hamas government]] 2016–present is the Gaza-based [[Governance of the Gaza Strip|Hamas-dominated ''de facto'' government in Gaza]]. It is made up of Deputy Ministers, Directors General and other high-level officials, not directly bound to the Ramallah administration. It was initially speculated that the 2016 Hamas government is an attempt by [[Ismail Haniyeh]] to return to full control of the Gaza enclave. The United States, Canada, the European Union, Japan and Israel classify Hamas as a terrorist organization and do not recognize the government. Hamas government is not recognized by the Ramallah administration of the State of Palestine. * Palestinian Unity Government ** The [[Palestinian Unity Government of June 2014|Palestinian Unity Government]] was formed on 2 June 2014, following the [[2014 Fatah–Hamas Agreements|Fatah-Hamas Reconciliation Agreement]] of 23 April 2014. However, the Government was not presented for approval by the [[Palestinian Legislative Council|Legislative Council]], leading to its legitimacy being questioned. The ministers were nominally independent, but overwhelmingly seen as loyal to President Abbas and his Fatah movement or to smaller leftist factions, none of whom were believed to have close ties to Hamas. A feature of this government is the appointment of Deputy Ministers, Directors General and other high-level officials for Gaza, and not directly bound to the Ramallah administration. The government of 2014 resigned on 17 June 2015, under protest from Hamas which was not consulted.<ref name=aj_unity_resigns>[http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/06/palestinian-unity-government-resigns-150617125314649.html ''Palestinian unity government resigns''].

== Public opinion == During the backdrop of the [[Gaza war]] in 2024, Zogby Research Services conducted a poll of Palestinians from the [[West Bank]] and from [[Gaza Strip]] regarding prospects of future governance in Gaza. A majority of respondents from the Gaza Strip (52%) supported some form of governance from the [[Palestinian Authority]], either directly by a reformed PA (23%) or indirectly by Gazan administrators linked to the PA (29%). Only a small minority (24%) supported any [[Hamas]] involvement, either as the sole party in government (7%) or in a unity government with [[Fatah]] (17%).
