Jerusalem Day (Hebrew: יום ירושלים, Yom Yerushaláyim) is an Israeli national holiday that commemorates the joining of East Jerusalem (including the Old City of Jerusalem) with West Jerusalem following the Six-Day War of 1967, in which Israel occupied East Jerusalem and the West Bank. Israel views East Jerusalem as fully annexed; this view of the status of Jerusalem is disputed by others.
