Israel is intensifying discussions around the potential annexation of parts of the West Bank in light of international moves to recognize Palestine as a state. Reports indicate that Prime Minister Netanyahu and his cabinet are weighing options for annexation, possibly starting this month, as Europe and world leaders advocate for Palestinian statehood. The Knesset has already approved a non-binding motion supporting Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank, while Netanyahu has expressed a commitment to preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state. The Palestinian Foreign Ministry has condemned these actions, asserting that international relations with Israel should adhere to international law. As tensions escalate, the situation in the West Bank remains highly contentious, with settler leaders urging an aggressive annexation strategy and the Palestinian Authority facing potential sanctions from Israel.
