Arab League deems Israeli West Bank annexation a ‘new war crime’

The Arab League announced Thursday Israel’s controversial plan to annex much of the West Bank constituted a “new war crime” against the Palestinians, during a virtual conference chaired in Cairo.

“The implementation of plans to annex any part of the Palestinian territories occupied in 1967, including the Jordan Valley… and the lands on which Israeli settlements are standing represents a new war crime… against the Palestinian people,” Arab foreign ministers said in a joint statement.

The Arab League also asked the United States to “withdraw its support in enabling the plans of the occupying Israeli government”.
