JERUSALEM: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, if he is re-elected, he will annex Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank.
Israelis are voting on Tuesday. Netanyahu is competing for votes with right-wing parties supporting the annexation part of the West Bank.
The settlements are illegal under international law.
In March, the US recognized the occupied Golan Heights as Israeli territory.
Israel has so far settled about 400,000 Jews in West Bank settlements.
Around 2.5 million Palestinians are currently living in the West Bank. (Agencies)
