Israel Revives Plan for 1,600 Settler Homes in East Jerusalem
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Israel has revived a plan to construct 1,600 new settler homes in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Ramat Shlomo that raised U.S. objections when it was first announced in 2010, an official said on Monday.
"In the next two weeks the interior ministry's district committee for Jerusalem will convene to discuss the objections to the program that was approved for deposit over two years ago," interior ministry spokeswoman Efrat Orbach told AFP.
The Ramat Shlomo project caused a diplomatic rift between Israel and Washington when it was first announced in March 2010.
