Claim Verification: "The UN Partition Plan Resolution 181 allocated 56 percent of Mandatory Palestine to the proposed Jewish state while Jews constituted less than 33 percent of the population according to the 1947 British census." — Proved (with unverified citations)

Automated fact-verification of the claim: "The UN Partition Plan Resolution 181 allocated 56 percent of Mandatory Palestine to the proposed Jewish state while Jews constituted less than 33 percent of the population according to the 1947 British census." Verdict: PROVED (with unverified citations) Key Findings SC1 — Land allocation: Resolution 181 allocated 56.47% of Mandatory Palestine (15,264 km²) to the proposed Jewish state, meeting the claimed "56 percent" threshold (SC1 holds: 56.47 ≥ 56.0) SC2 — Population: Jewish population constituted 32.96% of Mandatory Palestine's total population per 1946 British Mandate estimates, which is less than 33% (SC2 holds: 32.96 < 33.0) Both sub-claims are independently supported by verified citations (Wikipedia's Partition Plan article confirms both the 56.47% figure and the 608,225 / 1,845,559 population data) Important caveat: The claim refers to a "1947 British census" — no such census existed. The last formal British census of Palestine was 1931. The population figures used here are 1946 British Mandate estimates, which are the figures cited in all authoritative historical sources as the demographic context for Resolution 181.
