Israel's Controversial West Bank Land Registration to Begin

Israel will initiate the registration of land in the contested West Bank region, reigniting debates over sovereignty and international engagement. While the process aims to formalize ownership, it has drawn sharp criticism from Palestinian groups who assert the land as theirs.
