Breaking : Knesset set to debate bills to annex occupied West Bank today

 

The Israeli Knesset is set to hold a debate today on two bills that call for annexing the occupied West Bank and applying full Israeli sovereignty over the territory.

The session follows last week’s decision by the Knesset Presidium to bring the proposals to a preliminary vote.

One was submitted by opposition leader Avigdor Lieberman of Yisrael Beiteinu, and the other by National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir of the far-right Otzma Yehudit party.

If either measure passes the initial reading, it will move to the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee for further review before returning to the plenary for additional votes.
