"Israel authorized the construction of thousands of new settlement units in Jerusalem/ al Quds.

Israel approved the construction of 1,600 units in the Ramat Shlomo settlement, and will give final approval for the construction of 2,700 additional units in “a couple of days”, totaling the approval of constructing 4,300 illegal settlement units in Jerusalem/al Quds.
This comes only a week after Israel approved the construction of 930 settlement units on the confiscated lands of Abu Ghnaim Mountain on the settlement of Har Homa Southern East Jerusalem/Al-Quds, and now have recently approved settlement units construction on the Northern part East Jerusalem/al Quds.
Over the past month hundreds of thousands of Israeli's protested against their housing crisis as well as for their social and economic rights and blame the current crisis on Israel's right wing. Palestinians are accusing the same Israeli extremists of using the current housing crisis in Israel to promote construction in the settlements
The Palestinian authority's calls for international laws and resolutions to be respected by Israel falls on deaf ears, as the Palestinian people know that all they will get from the international community are condemnations of the occupations actions.
