TAKE ACTION: Israel set to steal more Palestinian land

Posted: 17th February 2026

The Israeli government has just approved measures to accelerate the de-facto annexation of large swathes of Palestinian land in the West Bank. The British government must respond by ending its complicity in Israel’s illegal occupation and system of apartheid. Write to the Foreign Office and demand the government impose sanctions now!

Yesterday, Netanyahu’s government backed a proposal from far-right ministers to reinstate a deeply discriminatory land registration process in the West Bank – a mechanism historically used to dispossess Palestinians of their land. Under this system, Palestinians will be forced to “prove” ownership through complex and often impossible legal hurdles, while illegal Israeli settlements continue to expand.

These steps further entrench Israel’s illegal occupation and apartheid system, paving the way for large-scale land seizures and settlement expansion. The British government must respond by implementing wide ranging sanctions against Israel.

In July 2024 the International Court of Justice ruled Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory to be illegal, found Israel to be guilty of the crime of apartheid, and called on all states to take measures to bring an end to these grave violations of international law. A year and a half later, the British government has shamefully still not responded to this landmark ruling.

During that time, the situation for Palestinians has rapidly deteriorated – with Israel continuing its genocide in the Gaza Strip, and escalating violence and repression against Palestinians across all of historic Palestine. Please take 2 minutes to join us and demand that the British government takes action to end its complicity.
