Israeli settlers are seizing Palestinian land under cover of war - they hope permanently.

Since the start of the war in Gaza , there has been an acceleration in settlement growth in the occupied West Bank .

Israel ’s domestic intelligence chief Ronen Bar wrote to ministers warning that Jewish extremists in the West Bank were carrying out acts of “terror” against Palestinians and causing “indescribable damage” to the country.

Extremists advancing annexation plans in the West Bank and openly call for settling Gaza once the war is over.

They have rapidly expanded their control over the territory with the support of the most far-right government in Israel 's history.

Israel rejected the finding, saying: “The Jewish people are not occupiers in their own land.”.

Israel 's far right seeks to make permanent changes in the West Bank and Gaza .

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has ruled out restoring Jewish settlements in Gaza .

But he remains beholden to far-right parties who threaten to collapse his coalition if he signs a 'reckless' ceasefire deal.
