The "Israeli" government decided on Sunday to build an additional 1,000 units in a number of ‘Jewish-only' settlements in the occupied West Bank, including in illegally annexed East al-Quds (Jerusalem).

"Israeli" Yedioth Aharonoth reported that the "Israeli" Housing Ministry and the so-called "Israel's Land Authority" decided to build the new units in three settlements, located in East al-Quds (Jerusalem) and the West Bank

The approval is part of a larger plan that aims at building 6,000 units in 44 settlements in different parts of the West Bank, including al-Quds (Jerusalem).

According Yedioth Aharonoth, the "Israeli" government tried to delay the announcement of the new projects in order to avoid ‘condemnations' from the United States and the European Union.

The "Israeli" government insists on what it calls ""Israel's" right to build housing projects for its citizens", yet, settlements violate International Law and the Fourth Geneva Convention, as they are built in territories that are under occupation.
