West Bank Annexation

'Hamas has no regrets of Oct. 7,' terror leader says • IDF asserts control of over half of Gaza City • Trump says he had good talks with Netanyahu on Gaza

Tony Blair reportedly to take leadership role in Gaza • Iran says IAEA deal hinges on no hostile actions, including UN sanctions snapback • Trump says he had good talks with Netanyahu on Gaza.

Trump reports progress in Gaza talks with Netanyahu.

The politicians and regional heads call to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank come after the UK, Canada, Portugal, and Australia recognized a Palestinian state.

Anyone with even the most superficial understanding of the conflict knows that a Palestinian state has never been further from coming to fruition than today.

The UAE is one of just a few Arab states with diplomatic relations with Israel and downgrading ties would be a major setback for the Abraham Accords.

Now is the time for Israel to step forward with clarity and moral strength by formally extending full sovereignty over Judea and Samaria.

NATIONAL AFFAIRS: From annexation maps to Gaza operations, September could prove a turning point for Israel as the UN, Europe, and Arab states raise the stakes.

Majdalani believes that "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is fully aware of the seriousness of the UAE's warning, as it could have implications for the positions of other Arab countries."

The Thursday discussion will focus on the security situation in the West Bank, in light of the upcoming UN General Assembly, where several countries will recognize Palestinian statehood. 

The UAE warned Israel that any annexation of the West Bank would constitute a red line for Abu Dhabi that would severely undermine the spirit of the Abraham Accords.
