Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has called for 'war' in the occupied West Bank, according to Al Jazeera, which asks whether the statement is rhetoric or a real threat. The remarks come amid ongoing Israeli military operations and settlement expansion in the territory, and are drawing criticism from those who see them as incitement to further escalation against Palestinians.

Why now: Smotrich's provocative language from a senior Israeli government figure raises fears of intensified military action in the West Bank.
