Following Trump's plan... Israeli cabinet to vote on annexation of illegal settlements
Occupied Palestine (QNN)- The Israeli cabinet will vote next Sunday on a proposal to annex illegal settlements constructed in the West Bank, reported Israeli media.
Benjamin Netanyahu’s government has found the impudence to act following the release of Trump's plan for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which favored the occupation state.
The plan recognizes Israel's sovereignty over large parts of the West Bank, which has been divided by Israeli illegal settlements.
