(Bloomberg) -- The Israeli cabinet will vote Sunday on a proposal to annex West Bank territory where settlements stand, Channel 11 reported.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government has been emboldened to act following the release Tuesday of the Trump administration’s plan to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which recognizes Israeli sovereignty over those lands.
Palestinians claim all of the West Bank for a future state, but those aspirations would be far from realized under the peace proposal.
