War and Annexation: How the Israeli Government Changed the West Bank During the First Year of War With Yonatan Mizrachi, of Settlement Watch
For the first time, Peace Now Israel, Americans for Peace Now, Canadian Friends of Peace Now, and La Paix Maintenant in France are coming together to host this pivotal webinar.
Yonatan Mizrachi, a leading expert from Peace Now’s Settlement Watch team, will present new insights from Peace Now’s latest annual report, "War and Annexation: How the Israeli Government Changed the West Bank During the First Year of War."
In the wake of a year-long war in Gaza and nearly two years under a far-right, pro-settler government, the Israeli government's agenda in the occupied West Bank is clearer than ever: to advance annexation policies and further reduce the Palestinian presence in Area C.
Yonatan (“Yoni”) Mizrachi, who joined Peace Now two years ago, co-leads the Settlement Watch team. He is also a co-founder and the former executive director of Emek Shaveh, an organization dedicated to protecting archaeology from misuse in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Yonatan will explain how Israel has been marching forward with an annexation agenda under the cover of war. And he will outline how Peace Now and its allies are pushing back against this dangerous agenda.
