Israel Aims to Stop Palestinian Authority 'Collapse,' PM Office Says
Israel's security cabinet, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has adopted a declaration to prevent the collapse of the Western-backed Palestinian Authority , but did not offer specific plans on how to do so.
The decision comes after Israel has increased military operations against armed groups in the occupied West Bank, where the PA has limited autonomy, exposing the weakness of the PA in the face of militants and the expansion of Israeli settlements.
The declaration also demands an end to the PA's anti-Israel activity, including incitement, illegal construction, and payments to the families of terrorists.
