In the occupied West Bank, Israel is moving ahead with plans to create another 3,400 homes in illegal settlements, despite condemnation from the U.S. and other allies. The settlements are a violation of international law.
The Wall Street Journal recently published a video showing the surge in illegal settlement building, with new roads and outposts mushrooming in the West Bank since October 7. Palestinian officials have pushed back on the illegal construction, but the vast majority of it has gone unreported or unpunished by the Israeli government.
