    Interesting that this map does have Palestine (presumably the West Bank and east Jerusalem) but doesn’t consider Gaza part of Palestine.

    That’s quite a unique combination.

    Edit: looking at Azerbaijan, I think they just focus on the biggest landmass and ignore exclaves.

    Edit2: the fine print actually says that they ignore exclaves, except for Malaysia.

      Maybe it’s just considering de facto control? Israel currently controls the whole Egypt-Palestine border, so there’s no land controlled by any form of Palestinian government that has a border with Egypt

      Edit: or it’s an artifact of the “exclaves have otherwise been ignored” part, if the West Bank is considered the core and Gaza is an exclave of that

        The West Bank contains both the claimed capital of Jerusalem and the seat of government of the Palestinian Authority in Ramalla. This means Gaza is an exclave.
