Israeli Right Finance Minister Basele Smatrich said to approve plans to build more than 3,000 houses in a controversial settlement on the occupied West Bank – a step he stated to prevent the creation of a Palestinian state.
The so -called project E1 between Jerusalem and the settlement of Melyim Adumim was frozen for decades amid a rigid opposition internationally. The building there would effectively disconnect the western shore from the occupied eastern Jerusalem and significantly impedes its territorial asylum.
“The plan will bury the idea of a Palestinian state,” Smotrich said, Israeli media reported.
Settlements are considered illegal in international law, although Israel disputes it.
They are one of the most controversial issues between Israel and Palestinians. About 700,000 settlers live in approximately 160 settlements on the western shore and eastern Jerusalem, according to the Israeli group for combating the networks “Mir” – the land of Palestinians are seeking a future independent state.
“After a decade of international pressure and freezing, we break the conventions and connect Maalo to Jerusalem,” Smotrich said.
“This is Zionism at best – the construction, settlement and strengthening of our sovereignty in the land of Israel.”
This implies the declarations in recent days with an increasing number of countries about the intention to recognize the Palestinian state in the coming months, which Israel has announced.
Announcing the plan for a press conference with Council Chairman Israel, Israel Hantsil, Gantse, and mayor Melya Guy Ifrakh, said that the earth was given to God by the Jews.
Asked by BBC what a message planned, similar to Britain and France who plan Admire Palestine’s condition at the end of this yearHe said, “It won’t happen. The state recognizes.”
Peace said now: “The Netanyahu government operates every minute to deepen the western shore and prevent the possibility of a two -state decision.
“Today it is clear to everyone that the only decision of the conflict and the only way to defeat Hamas is the creation of a Palestinian state together with Israel.
“The Israeli government condemns us to continue the bloodshed, instead of working on finishing.”
The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs called the new plan to resolve the “expansion of the crimes of genocide, movement and annexation”.
Israel has long rejected such allegations, but leading Israeli human rights organizations claim that the country’s behavior in Gaza is a genocide against the Palestinian population.
Smatry, together with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, was sanctioned by the UK in June Above the “repeated incitement of violence against the Palestinian communities” on the occupied Western Bank.
Construction of 3 401 residential premises in the E1 zone has been frozen for 20 years. The development of the territory has long been regarded as effectively blocking the creation of a Palestinian state, thanks to the strategic positions that separate the areas south of Jerusalem from those north, preventing the adjoining Palestinian city region connecting Ramalo, eastern Jerusalem and Bethlehem.
Since Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, Israel’s pressure on the Palestinian on the West Bank has increased dramatically, justified as legitimate security measures.
Last year, the vast majority of the international community consider the calculations illegal in accordance with international legislation – a position supported by the Advisory conclusion of the International Court (CU).
