'Israel’s' Knesset has approved a preliminary reading of a bill to extend 'Israeli' sovereignty over the West Bank. The vote was narrowly passed, 25 in favor and 24 against.

'Israeli' National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir emphasized the timing, declaring: “It's time for sovereignty now!”

If enacted, the law would apply 'Israeli' law, jurisdiction, administration, and sovereignty to all settlement areas in the West Bank. The bill will now proceed to the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee for further discussion.
