Israel’s Knesset passed a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state on Thursday.
The bill, co-sponsored by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition along with right-wing parties in the opposition, was passed by an overwhelming majority of 68 votes, with only nine MKs voting against it.
In Gaza, six people were killed in an Israeli strike on a home in al-Zawayda, central Gaza, while one other was killed in an Israeli attack on a mosque in the Nuseirat refugee camp.
An Israeli drone strike on the east of Lebanon’s Beqaa also reportedly killed a member of al-Jamaa al-Islamiya group, according to Al Jazeera.
