Zionist regime OK’s 300 new illegal settler units

The Zionist regime has given the final go-ahead for the construction of 300 new illegal settler units in East al-Quds.

Housing Ministry spokesman Ariel Rosenberg said on Thursday that the new units will be built in Ramot neighborhood, which lies in the territory Zionist regime occupied in 1967.
On Wednesday, an Israeli NGO said that the regime plans to build 1,000 new settler units in East al-Quds.
Contracts for 300 homes in the northeastern settlement of Ramot were signed and another 797 plots were to be offered for sale in the southern settlement of Gilo.
Gilo is also one of five major settlements in East al-Quds that were established by the Zionist regime following the Six-Day War of 1967.
A new report has revealed that the Zionist regime confiscated 1,977 acres of the Palestinian lands in the occupied West Bank for its settlement activity during 2012.
The Zionist daily Haaretz reported on May 27 that the settlements, which cover an area roughly equal to 1,035 soccer fields and twice as big as New York’s Central Park, were approved by “military order.”
The report said most of the new settlements were located deep in the Palestinian-inhabited West Bank.
