Israel is pushing the occupied West Bank “toward an explosion” that threatens the entire region, senior Jordanian officials have warned, accusing Israel’s far-right government of trying to recreate the security conditions of Gaza to force Palestinians from their land.
In a briefing shared with The Independent, the officials said Israeli policies “orchestrated by far-right extremists” were designed to impose de facto annexation, dismantle the Palestinian Authority (PA) and confine Palestinians to “restricted enclaves”, with the ultimate aim of preventing a Palestinian state.
