Israel has approved a plan for the construction of about one thousand new settler units in the east Jerusalem al-Quds. The approval comes despite international calls on Israel to stop the settlements expansion on the Palestinian lands.

Israeli regime approved the building of 930 settlement units in the illegal settlement of Pisgat Zeev in the heart of occupied Jerusalem al-Quds. Anti-settlement groups said the new units will be established on lands seized from the villages of Beit Hanina, Hazmah and Anata.
