Israel’s West Bank Land Registry Move Sparks Palestinian Outrage

Israel’s cabinet has approved a plan to formally register land in parts of the occupied West Bank, a step that Israeli officials say will modernize property records and clarify ownership. The initiative would allow the state to designate certain areas as Israeli state land and streamline processes for settlement expansion.

Palestinian leaders have sharply condemned the decision, calling it a “de‑facto annexation” that further entrenches Israeli control over territory they envision as part of a future state.

Opponents counter that it accelerates settlement growth and deepens the political divide, raising new concerns about the viability of a two‑state solution.
