Israel has approved 22 new Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank, triggering sharp backlash from Palestinians and warnings from international allies.
These settlements will be located in the northern region, though precise locations were not disclosed. The move includes the legalization of existing outposts and the creation of new ones, Israeli media reported.
The development comes amid increasing international pressure, with Western allies like Britain, France, and Canada warning of possible sanctions. Most countries consider such settlements illegal under international law, a view rejected by Israel. Tensions in the West Bank have intensified since the start of the war in Gaza, with a surge in both Israeli military activity and settler violence.
