After Britain, Australia, and Canada announced their recognition of a Palestinian state, Israel is moving closer to a decision on extending sovereignty over parts of Judea and Samaria, Kan News reported Sunday evening.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to discuss the issue with President Trump next week, while pressure grows inside the cabinet to advance the move.
According to an Arab media report, Saudi Arabia has warned Israel that any annexation steps would carry “major consequences on all levels.”
For now, the impact of recognition remains mostly symbolic: official maps are set to replace the term West Bank with Palestine, and countries such as Britain are weighing whether to upgrade the Palestinian mission to an embassy, though no timetable has been set.
