The foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey have issued a joint statement condemning recent Israeli policy changes in the West Bank. The statement criticizes the Israeli security cabinet's approval of measures that alter land registration and property acquisition procedures, claiming these steps are designed to entrench settlement activity and impose unlawful sovereignty in the occupied territory. The ministers warn that these actions accelerate attempts at illegal annexation and displacement of Palestinian residents, urging the international community to pressure Israel to halt its escalation and inflammatory rhetoric. The condemnation follows responses from the Palestinian Authority and Hamas, both calling for intervention and increased resistance.
