Palestinian VP criticizes transfer of settlement law enforcement
The Palestinian Ministry condemned the Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz's decision to transfer law enforcement powers in settlements established on Palestinian territories to the Israeli police. It affirmed that this step constitutes a violation of international law and UN resolutions, and represents an attempt to impose Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem. The move further entrenches the illegal annexation of Palestinian lands. The statement indicated that the transfer of authority involves separating military tasks such as counter-terrorism and protecting settlers from the police's responsibilities in enforcing civil law, amid rising tensions and clashes between settlers and the military. Meanwhile, the international community continues to call for halting these measures and insisting on adherence to international legitimacy resolutions.
