Rights Group Warns Israeli Settlement Project Could Undermine Palestinian Statehood
A Belgian NGO is urging sanctions over plans to build more than 3,000 new settlements, citing an upcoming deadline.
A Belgian rights organization has warned that an Israeli settlement project could make the creation of a Palestinian state "impossible," according to Anadolu Agency. The NGO is calling for international sanctions as a deadline next month approaches for plans to construct more than 3,000 new settlements.
The group's statement reflects ongoing international concerns about Israeli settlement expansion in Palestinian territories, which has been a long-standing point of contention in Middle East peace efforts.
