France, the UK, Canada, and Malta plan UN recognition of a Palestinian state, drawing Israel and Trump’s strong opposition. Amid Hamas rejecting a ceasefire, Israel moves to annex northern Gaza and advances infrastructure in Judea and Samaria, seen by many as prophetic fulfillment.

Trump and Israel strongly opposed the move, calling it a reward for terror. Canada tied recognition to Palestinian Authority reforms and the exclusion of Hamas.
In response to Hamas rejecting a ceasefire over claims of starvation, Israel has threatened to annex northern Gaza and impose martial law. At home, Israel approved a $138 million plan for roads in Judea, Samaria, and the Jordan Valley, as the Knesset pushes to extend sovereignty—fulfilling what many see as biblical prophecy unfolding.
