Poland on Wednesday joined several countries that condemned the Israeli seizure of 800 hectares (1,976 acres) of land in the Jordan Valley in the occupied West Bank.
Emphasizing the move is the largest appropriation of Palestinian land by Israel since the Oslo Accords, the Polish Foreign Ministry said on X: “This runs counter to international law and also to efforts to deescalate the current situation.”
The Israeli government reportedly seized 800 hectares of land in the Jordan Valley region of the occupied West Bank, claiming it as "state land," according to a report on Israel's state television channel KAN.
It was reported that the seized land could be used for the construction of illegal Jewish settlements.
The international community agrees that settlements are “illegal” and constitute an obstacle to the implementation of the “two-state solution,” which calls for the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside the state of Israel.
