Israel has lots of districts. And sometimes the Jerusalem district is in Israel.
But some communities that are considered "settlements" have no district or country. They don't belong to anyone.

Arab neighborhoods in Jerusalem aren't part of the Jerusalem District. They are part of the "Jerusalem Governorate:"
