Opening the land registry makes parcel ownership easier to identify, lowering transaction friction for Israeli buyers and increasing exposure of Palestinian landowners to targeted pressure and legal/administrative challenges. Moving settlement permitting in Hebron to Israeli control removes a local Palestinian veto point and can accelerate approvals and construction timelines in a high-sensitivity area. The combined measures tighten Israel’s administrative control over land and planning in parts of the West Bank, changing assumptions for NGOs, diplomats, and businesses about who controls property rights and permitting decisions on the ground.
