Israel seized east Jerusalem during the 1967 Six-Day War and later annexed it in a move never recognized by the international community. The Palestinians claim Arab east Jerusalem as the capital of their promised state. The international community views all Israeli construction on land seized in 1967, including the West Bank, as illegal and a major obstacle to a negotiated peace agreement.
