Campaign posters for far-right Israeli lawmaker Bezalel Smotrich, now the Minister of Finance, is strung across a road sign marking an entrance to an area under Palestinian control, near the West Bank town of Nablus, Sunday, Oct. 16, 2022. Smotrich assumed new powers from the military over the occupied territory this year. As the first minister to oversee civilian life in the West Bank, his role amounts to a recognition that Israel's occupation is not temporary, but permanent, observers say.
