In short:

The United Nations says it is "gravely concerned" over Israeli plans to expand control over the occupied West Bank.

Saudi Arabia, Jordan and a number of other regional states have also condemned Israel's move.

What's next?

It is unclear when the new rules will take effect but they do not require further approval.
