International Amnesty accuses Israel of accelerating West Bank annexation with new land confiscations

Expresso4 September 2026 at 12:16

International Amnesty accused Israel of accelerating the annexation process of the West Bank through new land confiscation orders in Jenin and other areas of Palestinian territory.

The human rights organization denounces that these land appropriations have the alleged objective of expanding Israeli settlements and further fragmenting the territory controlled by Palestinians.

According to Amnesty, the measures include areas that are under the administration of the Palestinian Authority, worsening the humanitarian and political situation in the region.

The accusation comes in the context of growing concerns about the continuity of Israeli settlement expansion in the West Bank, a territory occupied since 1967.

The success of the far-right leader shakes Australia

Pauline Hanson, leader of the Australian far right and founder of the One Nation party, threatens to break the bipartisanship that has prevailed in Australian democracy. At 73 years old and an admirer of Donald Trump, Hanson is preparing for a major electoral leap in the federal elections scheduled for 2028, with polls giving her 30% voting intention, above the Labor Party (in government) and the Coalition (liberals and conservatives), the main traditional forces. It is the first time that a third party surpasses traditional Australian parties in opinion polls.
