Israel's parliament passes a controversial legislation paving the way for the return of veteran hawk Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister
Netanyahu's incoming government has sparked fears of a military escalation in the occupied West Bank amid the worst violence in Israeli-occupied Palestinian territory for nearly 20 years.
Netanyahu will present what analysts have said will be the most right-wing government in Israel's history to parliament on Thursday. A second law passed allows for two ministers to serve in the same office, a measure targeting the defence portfolio. The morning session also saw Netanyahu ally Yariv Levin resign as interim speaker of the Knesset, ahead of his expected appointment to a ministry.
Late on Tuesday, outgoing Defence Minister Benny Gantz expressed "fear" over the "extremist direction" of the incoming government, which he said could harm Israel's security. Palestine sees those territories as part of its country, with East Jerusalem its heartland and ultimate capital.
