The correct option is: "It divided Palestine into Jewish and Arab states."

On November 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the United Nations, meeting in New York, approved Resolution 181, which recommended a plan to resolve the conflict between Jews and Arabs in the Palestine region, which was at that time under British administration. The UN plan proposed dividing the western part of the Mandate into two states, one Jewish and one Arab-Palestinian, with one area, which included Jerusalem and Bethlehem, under international control. The refusal of the British government to carry out this plan, together with the refusal of the Arab countries of the region to accept it, resulted in a civil war in the territory of the Mandate of Palestine that erupted the day after the vote of the Plan, followed by the Arab-Israeli war of 1948 and the successive clashes between Arabs and Jews that remain to this day.
