Caption: Trump Blocks Netanyahu's West Bank Annexation, Pushes Gaza Peace Deal. US President Donald Trump says he will not allow Israel to annex the occupied West Bank. Speaking in the Oval Office, Trump told reporters: "It's not going to happen." His remarks came just hours before Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's UN address. The announcement comes as pressure mounts on Israel to end the war in Gaza and halt settlement expansion. European states including the UK, France, and Germany have warned against annexation, while UN Secretary General António Guterres called it "morally, legally and politically intolerable.” Trump also revealed he is "pretty close" to brokering a Gaza deal and claimed peace may be within reach. Meanwhile, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas—barred from traveling to New York—welcomed a wave of countries formally recognising Palestine, but insisted Hamas will not govern Gaza. Israel faces growing isolation abroad, EU trade restrictions, and even tech sanctions, while the humanitarian crisis in Gaza deepens.
