Gush Etzion Regional Council, Regional council in northern Judean Hills, West Bank.
The Gush Etzion Regional Council administers multiple settlements across the northern Judean Hills, providing municipal services to over 21,000 residents.
Following the Israeli capture of the West Bank during the 1967 Six-Day War, the council was established in 1980 to govern the settlements in the region.
Educational institutions within the Gush Etzion Regional Council integrate religious studies with modern curriculum, reflecting the community's values and traditions.
Regular bus services connect the settlements within the council's jurisdiction to Jerusalem, with security checkpoints monitoring access points throughout the area.
The council's settlements span both sides of the West Bank Barrier, creating a complex administrative structure that bridges different territorial classifications.
