West Bank Settlement Expansion on Security Council Agenda
The United Nations is holding an open briefing session of the Security Council on the situation in the Middle East, focusing on the Israeli settlement escalation and the increasing violence by settlers in the West Bank. Particular attention is given to the construction tenders for 1,234 settlement units in the E1 area, which threatens the geographical continuity between the north and south of the West Bank, as well as the escalating hostile acts against Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The Palestinian Presidency called for urgent intervention to protect international institutions and halt Israeli assaults, pointing out that Israeli policies aim to undermine Palestinian presence and destroy prospects for peace. The United Nations also condemned Israel’s threat to expel residents from Gaza following children launching paper airplanes.
