Ramallah: The Palestinians condemned the formation of a new Israeli “annexation” government Monday, saying the agreement would wreck hopes of peace.

“The formation of an Israeli annexation government means ending the two-state solution and the dismantling of the rights of the people of Palestine,” Palestinian prime minister Mohammed Shtayyeh tweeted.
