UN political affairs chief warns of escalating tensions in West Bank, describing Israeli actions as gradual "de-facto annexation" that threatens peace prospects. Rosemary DiCarlo highlighted potential expansion of Israeli civil authority in Palestinian-administered areas, including sensitive locations like Hebron. Her remarks to the UN Security Council suggest growing concerns about unilateral measures that could accelerate settlement developments and undermine international legal frameworks. The warning comes amid a fragile Gaza ceasefire, with DiCarlo urging diplomatic efforts to consolidate peace and advance recovery. This situation reflects the complex geopolitical challenges in the region, where territorial disputes continue to strain diplomatic relations and potential resolution pathways.
