In 2014, UNICEF reported that 91% of women in Egypt had undergone some form of FGM. FGM has never been an accepted practice and is illegal in Israel.
There is no evidence that female genital mutilation/circumcision is practiced in Palestine. Some believe that incidents occur in certain communities such as in the southern parts of the Gaza Strip, where there is an Egyptian influence. However, laws and policies do not specifically prohibit these practices.
