’Israel’ Advances Plans for 1,292 WB Settlements
Local Editor
The ‘Israeli' occupation authorities on Tuesday advanced plans for 1,292 settler units in the occupied West Bank, in a new push by the government for such approvals, settlement watchdog Peace Now told AFP.
"They are all over the West Bank," spokeswoman Hagit Ofran said, without immediately providing a breakdown.
She said further approvals were expected to come on Wednesday.
Earlier on Monday, an ‘Israeli' committee approved permits for 31 settler units in al-Khalil, the first such green light for the flashpoint West Bank city since 2002.
Several hundred ‘Israeli' settlers live in the heart of al-Khalil under heavy military guard among some 200,000 Palestinians.
