Israel’s parliament has approved a non-binding resolution calling for the annexation of all Jewish settlements in the West Bank. The motion, which passed with 71 votes to 13, urges Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to declare the settlements as part of Israeli sovereignty. The move is seen as a rejection of international efforts to recognize Palestinian statehood and comes amid ongoing tensions between Israelis and Palestinians in the region.
