"Axios" quoted US and Israeli sources as saying that the White House will hold meetings of high-ranking officials this week to discuss whether the administration will give the green light to Israel to annex parts of the West Bank.
The site said that Israel will not proceed with the annexation of the lands without the approval of the White House, and that there is opposition among some officials in both the United States and Israel.
"Axios" added that security and intelligence officials in both countries fear that the annexation of parts of the West Bank could lead to an escalation of violence in the region.
The website said that it is expected to attend meetings that may be held on Monday or Tuesday, Foreign Minister Mike Pompeo, Trump's adviser Jared Kushner, and the US ambassador to Israel David Friedman.
The website revealed that Trump will participate in one of the meetings, and that he will have the final say on the land annexation decision.
Refusal
Palestinian bodies and organizations launched an appeal to the international community against the Israeli annexation policy.
More than 670 leading, national and academic personalities signed the appeal, which included several points, most notably the call by the international community to abide by United Nations resolutions. Nasser Al-Kidwa, Chairman of the Arafat Foundation, said that this initiative is expected to achieve the desired success.
The Jordanian Foreign Minister, Ayman Safadi, had warned of the "danger" of the Israeli approach to annexing large parts of the occupied West Bank early next month.
"The issue of annexation is an unprecedented threat to the peace process," Safadi said after meeting Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah on Thursday.
On Friday, 10 Palestinians were wounded during the dispersal of the Israeli army, denouncing the settlement, in the northern occupied West Bank.
And media sources confirmed last week that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering annexing limited lands in the occupied West Bank as a first stage in the hope of overcoming international opposition to his promise to annex large lands.
Netanyahu has previously said that the US peace plan according to which Israel can maintain its settlements in the West Bank provides a "historic opportunity" to establish Israeli sovereignty over it and the Jordan Valley region.
