In the context of the West Bank, belligerent occupation is a situation where the Israeli war belligerent is supposed to exercise provisional and temporary control over Palestinian territory during its presence, even without a formal declaration of war. It follows from this that measures taken by the Israeli occupying authorities should avoid far-reaching changes in the existing order.
However, a declaration of war was issued on June 5, 1967, by the then-prime minister, Levi Eshkol, but it has never been lifted against the Palestinians, Lebanon, and Syria.
The "belligerent" aspect refers to the hostile nature of the Israeli "occupation", which is not consented to by the territorial sovereign, and the Israeli war belligerent is bound by international law to administer the territory. However, the Israeli war belligerent has been drafting and implementing "laws" for years, which have resulted in far-reaching changes to the existing (public) order to benefit its own people, but those who are illegal in the West Bank.
