One glaring limitation in addressing the experiences of women in situations of armed conflict is the absence of a sustained analysis of the structural limits and capture of the law of occupation. This chapter addresses and bridges the gender gap in the law of occupation by addressing certain aspects of women’s and girls’ experiences in the Occupied Palestinian Territorities. The chapter provides a brief historical contextualisation of the gender dimensions of belligerent occupation, addressing in particular the scope and gaps of the relevant treaty frameworks. It follows with an overview of certain gendered aspects to gendered lives under occupation, particularly focused on freedom of movement, family life, and gendered autonomy in long-term transformative occupations.
