Britain condemns Israeli plans for 19 new illegal colonies in occupied West Bank

RAMALLAH, December 20, 2025 (WAFA) – Britain condemned the Israeli government’s approval of plans to establish 19 new illegal colonies  in the occupied West Bank.

British Minister of State for the Middle East, Hamish Falconer, wrote in a post on X, "Britain condemns the Israeli government's plan to establish 19 new settlements in Palestine. These settlements are illegal under international law."

He added that the move threatens the peace plan in the Gaza Strip and undermines hopes for lasting peace and security, which can only be achieved through a two-state solution.
