Palestinian envoy says Canada 'pivotal' in Mideast peace, urges more action
Abdelhady said full embassy status would give Palestinian representation more permanence and reinforce self-determination as Canada weighs its role in a two-state solution.
- The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reported a record 870 demolitions of Palestinian-owned buildings across the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem since January, with the pace more than doubling the 15-year average.
- Israel's restrictive planning regime in the West Bank's 'Area C,' comprising roughly 60% of the territory under full military control, makes obtaining building permits nearly impossible for Palestinians, leaving homes vulnerable to seizure.

- On Monday, Palestinian representative Feda Abdelhady urged Canada to impose consequences on Israel, including suspending trade agreements and military exports used against Palestinians.
