Limor Son Har Melech, a Member of Knesset for the Otzma Yehudit party led by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, has introduced a legislative proposal to cancel the Oslo Accords, the Hebron Agreement, and the "Wye River" agreement. The proposed law calls for Israel to regain control over territories it transferred to the Palestinian Authority under these agreements. It also seeks to nullify all accords signed as part of the Oslo process, rendering them non-binding for Israel.
The proposal is expected to spark significant political debate within Israel, particularly among Jewish parties that oppose a Palestinian state but do not necessarily support voiding existing agreements with the Palestinian Authority.
In her explanatory notes for the bill, Son Har Melech stated, "After more than three decades since the signing of the Oslo Accords, and after the deaths of thousands of victims due to terrorism and the October 7th attack, the time has come to cancel all agreements and return the territories that were handed over within their framework."
She further emphasized, "After 33 years of bloodshed, thousands of deaths, countless operations, and the 'Simchat Torah' massacre, it should be clear to everyone: the Oslo disaster must end."
