Over 80 countries at the UN condemn Israel's West Bank actions

More than 80 member states at the United Nations have jointly condemned what they call Israel's 'unlawful' settlement expansions and other unilateral measures in the occupied West Bank. They argue these actions amount to a de facto annexation of Palestinian territory.

A UN special rapporteur also warned that Israel's recent land measures will consolidate this annexation. The group of condemning nations includes Indonesia and, in a notable move, India, which added its name to the list of critics.
