By Staff, Agencies The United Nations top human rights official Michelle Bachelet called on the ‘Israeli’ occupation entity on Monday to halt its “illegal” plans to annex part of occupied Palestinian territory in the West Bank, warning that it could lead to deadly clashes. Meanwhile, Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to extend his occupation entity’s alleged ‘sovereignty’ over Zionist settlements in the territory has drawn condemnation from the Palestinians, US Arab allies and other foreign governments.

Netanyahu’s cabinet is due to begin formal annexation deliberations on Wednesday, July 1.

“Annexation is illegal.

Period,” Bachelet said in a statement.

“I am deeply concerned that even the most minimalist form of annexation would lead to increased violence and loss of life, as walls are erected, security forces deployed and the two populations brought into closer proximity.”
