Israeli Minister Ben Gvir Claims West Bank, Vows to Dissolve PA

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir stated the entire occupied West Bank belongs to Israel and, if appointed Defense Minister, would dissolve the Palestinian Authority and expel Palestinians. This escalates rhetoric beyond prior positions, signaling potential policy shift if he gains the defense portfolio. The claim is unconfirmed as official policy but reflects growing far-right influence in the coalition.

Ben-Gvir Escalates West Bank Annexation Rhetoric, Threatens PA Dismantlement

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has publicly claimed the entire West Bank 'belongs to Israel' and threatened to dismantle the Palestinian Authority (PA) if appointed defense minister, advocating for Palestinian displacement. This represents an escalation in annexation rhetoric and potential policy shifts, though it remains a political statement without immediate official policy change. The impact is contingent on coalition dynamics and international reactions.
