“Israel” to Build 625 Settlement Units East of Al Quds

Director of maps and survey center at the Orient House Khalil Tufakji revealed on Sunday that "Israel" intends to build 625 new housing units in Pisgat Ze'ev settlement, that were established on Palestinian lands in Hezma and Beit Hanina areas in eastAl Quds (Jerusalem).

He also affirmed that "Israel" plans to establish a railway between Tel Aviv and its settlements in the West Bank in order to connect these settlements with the coastal region, to separate the northern West Bank from its south and to ethnically cleanse the Jordan valley region of its people.

The illegal building of settlements continues in the Occupied Palestinian Territories amid international silence and an international community that sets a blind eye to the issue.
