The land registration plan affects 83% of West Bank Area C and may transfer control from military to civilian Israeli authorities, easing settler land purchases.

  • The Israeli cabinet approved land registration in the West Bank to strengthen control over the area and address land claims, with the process possibly starting this year.
  • Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Defence Minister Israel Katz stated the move secures Israel's hold and protects national interests and security.
  • The Palestinian Authority condemned the decision as de-facto annexation and a violation of international law, describing it as a grave escalation.
  • Jordan's Foreign Ministry also condemned the decision and urged the international community to stop Israel's escalation in the occupied territories.
