US Vice President JD Vance has expressed his disapproval of the Israeli parliament's preliminary vote that supports the annexation of the West Bank, labelling it a slight against the policies of President Donald Trump.

The Israeli government, despite internal support for annexation, faces significant international pressure, notably from the United Arab Emirates and the United States, to maintain peace efforts in Gaza.

Meanwhile, the Israeli Supreme Court is reviewing the access of international journalists to Gaza amid a humanitarian crisis, as officials work to evacuate critical patients and stabilize the region.
