Smotrich vows settlement 'revolution' beyond occupied West Bank

Far-right Israeli minister Bezalel Smotrich has pledged to revolutionize settlement expansion beyond the occupied West Bank, amid ongoing violence in Gaza and the West Bank. This move could escalate tensions with Palestinian authorities and international community, which have long condemned settlement activities as illegal under international law. The vow signals a significant shift in Israeli policy that could lead to more disputes and instability in the region, impacting peace efforts and the lives of Palestinians living under occupation.
