“The municipal commission has given construction permits for 307 homes in Ramot and 73 in Har Homa,” Yosef Pepe Alalu, a city councilor, said on Wednesday, referring to two areas in the city.
Local Israeli authorities are taking advantage of the attention that is given to the March 2015 elections in order to expand construction projects, he said, adding, “This kind of decision distances us from any chance of reaching an agreement with the Palestinians.”

Despite widespread global condemnation of Israel’s land grab policies, the Tel Aviv regime has approved a series of plans for new settler units in East al-Quds in recent months.
The presence and continued expansion of Israeli settlements in occupied Palestine have created a major obstacle in the way of the efforts to establish peace in the Middle East.
More than half a million Israelis live in over 120 illegal settlements built since Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and East al-Quds.
