OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, ( PIC)– The Israeli occupation Ministry of settlements, on Wednesday put out five different tenders for the construction of 872 settlement units in Jabal Abu Ghneim “Har Homa” illegal settlement, south of occupied East Jerusalem.
The expert in settlements affairs in Jerusalem, Ahmed Mustafa Sob-Laban, stated in a press release published on Wednesday, that according to recent tenders issued by the Israeli Housing Ministry, 632 settlement units will be built as a part of the third phase of the construction at Jabal Abu Ghneim, what the Zionist Interior Minister Eli Yishai approved last August 2011
Sob-Laban added that the Israeli announcement of these tenders comes parallel with the eviction of settlers by the occupation army from a Palestinian home they have occupied in the Old City of Al-Khalil last week, in order to reassure the Zionist side specifically the extremist right-wingers and to prove that the Zionist government is going ahead with its settlement activities.
Furthermore, he asserted that the occupation nowadays is going ahead with its activities that aim at isolating Jerusalem from its surrounding in several directions as in the axis south which is the most prominent currently. It is expected that the area will witness a chain of settlements extending from “Har Homa” in the east to Givat Ha-Matos. In addition to the expansion projects of “Gilo” all the way to the so-called the new “National Gardens” that will be constructed on lands that belong to the Al-Walaja and on which the occupier is planning to construct “Givat Yael” settlement that will be the gateway for Gush Etzion settlement bloc, in the south of the West Bank.
