Communications in the State of Palestine lags behind the world, though it still has telephone, radio, television, and internet. The communications sector in the Palestinian West Bank and Gaza Strip faces many obstacles, such as the Oslo Accords that were signed with the Israeli authorities, which prevented the use of spectrum frequencies for the wireless communications sector except with the approval of the Israeli side, and other obstacles, all of which led to the prevention of bringing modern technology to Palestine. After an effort, Palestine obtained third generation wireless communications frequencies or 3G.
