Ahead of upcoming elections, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to annex Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank if reelected. The statement he made in an interview with an Israeli television channel marks a policy turn-around.

Palestinian officials denounced Netanyahu's campaign pledge, saying he would face a real problem if he followed through.
