Thursday, 25 June_The Palestinian Authority has launched a multi-million fund to support inhabitants of the Jordan Valley, less than a week before the Israeli regime intends to implement its plan to annex the strategic Palestinian territory.
“The government has decided to establish projects to support the residents of the Jordan Valley,” said Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh, stressing that the scheme would be implemented within days and amounts to $10 million.
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is facing a number of criminal indictments, has time and again announced that he would begin cabinet-level discussions for annexing more areas in the occupied West Bank on July 1, in accordance with US President Donald Trump's the so-called deal of the century.
Trump’s scheme, unveiled in January, largely gives in to Israel’s demands while creating a Palestinian state with limited control over its own security and borders, enshrining the occupied Jerusalem al-Quds as Israel’s “capital” and allowing the regime to annex settlements in the West Bank and the Jordan Valley.
In the wake of all these, President Mahmoud Abbas, who heads the Palestinian Authority, declared on May 19 the end of all agreements signed with Tel Aviv and Washington.
