Israeli minister Ben-Gvir claims West Bank 'belongs to Israel,' threatens PA dismantlement

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stated the entire West Bank 'belongs to Israel' and threatened to dismantle the Palestinian Authority if appointed defense minister, vowing to push for Palestinian displacement. This escalates rhetoric on annexation and PA's future, though it remains a political statement without immediate policy change. The claim is unverified beyond the minister's remarks, and its impact depends on coalition dynamics and international reaction.
