US President Donald Trump stated that Israel will not take action regarding the West Bank, following a controversial vote by Israeli lawmakers to advance annexation legislation. The move drew sharp criticism from American officials, who warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that proceeding could jeopardize ongoing ceasefire and hostage negotiations with Gaza. Vice President JD Vance, visiting Israel during the vote, reportedly expressed shock and concern, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized the importance of building on the recent Gaza ceasefire. Meanwhile, over a dozen Arab and Muslim countries condemned the Israeli legislative moves as violations of international law, highlighting the growing international tensions surrounding the issue.
