The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates held, in a statement, the neighboring country’s authorities responsible for the systematic airstrikes conducted by extremists in the West Bank.

The text denounced the theft of Palestinian lands, the construction of new settlements, and the war unleashed against Bedouin communities in the Jordan Valley.

It criticized “the continued invasion of the West Bank by the Israeli occupation government and its settler militias,” as well as the mass demolition of family homes, especially in the north, to “appease its right-wing and far-right supporters.”

The national television revealed that the number of Israeli settlements in that territory increased from 128 to 178, a 40 percent rise since the right-wing alliance led by Netanyahu came to power in late 2022.
