Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the establishment of a Palestinian state will not happen.

Netanyahu put out an angry statement after Britain and other Western allies said they were unilaterally recognising a Palestinian state in a step seen as a show of displeasure with Israel.

Netanyahu accused the foreign leaders of giving a prize to Hamas.

It will not happen, he said. A Palestinian state will not be established west of the Jordan River.

Netanyahu said he would announce Israel's response after a trip next week to the US, where he is to meet President Donald Trump at the White House.
