US EditionPakistan Denounces Israel’s Settlement Expansion in West Bank
Pakistan urges global action against Israel’s move to register West Bank lands as state property, violating international law and UN resolutions, officials said.
- On Monday, Pakistan condemned Israel's move to register West Bank land and urged the international community to reject it, following Sunday's approval by Israel's government.
- With formal registration halted since 1967, Israel's government left much Palestinian land unregistered, while Defence Minister Israel Katz called the new registration an `essential security and governance measure`.
- Hamas condemned the decision on Sunday as `an attempt to steal and Judaise lands`, citing international law that prohibits land confiscation in occupied territories.
- Registration of land establishes permanent ownership, and Pakistan warned the move violates international law, risking illegal settlement expansion.
- Pakistan called on the international community to take concrete measures to end Israeli impunity, reiterating support for a Palestinian state based on pre-1967 borders, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif as its capital.
