Israel's Knesset has overwhelmingly passed a non-binding motion calling for the annexation of the occupied West Bank, sparking widespread condemnation from countries and organizations worldwide. The resolution, though symbolic, signals Israel's intent to formalize control over the territory, which is considered illegal under international law. The move has been denounced by the Palestinian Authority, Arab League, Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and numerous countries including Turkey, Russia, Malaysia, Spain, and Pakistan. Critics warn that this escalation undermines prospects for a two-state solution and could further destabilize the region. Despite being non-binding, the vote is seen as a significant step toward permanent annexation and has intensified calls for international action.
