On June 27, Israeli Prime Minister NETANYAHU said at a press conference that
between the Mediterranean and the Jordan River there is no territorial space for
a two-state solution. He added Israeli public opinion, previously divided on the
two-state framework, has shifted over the past three years following the October
2023 escalation in the Israel-Palestine conflict. Analysts said the remarks are
a fresh blow to prospects for a Palestinian state on territory Israel occupied
in 1967, noting 157 of the UN's 193 members have recognized Palestinian
statehood.
