The Royal Committee for Jerusalem Affairs warns of escalating Judaization and Israelization plans in Jerusalem and the West Bank

Jerusalem, Palestine ·

Abdullah Tawfiq Kanaan, secretary-general of the Royal Committee for Jerusalem Affairs, told the Petra news agency that the Israeli government's hardline policy is tightening its colonial grip on the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem through accelerated Judaization and Israelization measures. He pointed to rising numbers of prisoners and detainees, incursions, and property confiscations.

Israel occupied East Jerusalem in 1967, and its annexation of the area is not recognised internationally. Jordan has a long-standing custodial role over Muslim holy sites in Jerusalem, including Al-Aqsa Mosque.
