The occupation Knesset advanced a controversial bill on Wednesday which, if passed into law, would legalize dozens of West Bank settlements considered illegal under Geneva 1954.
The so-called “Outposts Law,” initiated by hard-right Yamina MK Bezalel Smotrich, passed 59-39 in its preliminary reading in the main chamber of the Knesset.
The draft law aims to regulate and legalize about 70 settlement outposts scattered in the West Bank, and consider them as legitimate settlements.
