Original Note:
Palestinian Authority passed a law that makes marriage under the age of 18 illegal in 2020, governed in WB only. In Gaza, under the rule of Hamas, marriage of young women is still a common practice. 13% of Palestinian girls marry before age 18 and 1% marry before age of 15. https://www.girlsnotbrides.org/learning-resources/child-marriage-atlas/regions-and-countries/palestine/
