| France blasts latest Israeli construction |
| 2017-10-20 |
| [IsraelNationalNews] France on Thursday condemned Israel's approval this week of new homes in Judea and Samaria. On Tuesday, the Supreme Planning Council of the Civil Administration approved marketing for 300 housing units in Beit El, a promise Netanyahu made to residents five years ago. The approval of construction in Beit El came a day after the Civil Administration issued 31 building permits for a planned housing project in Hevron, the first permits for new Israeli construction in the ancient city in decades. "France calls on the Israeli authorities to reverse this decision and to respect their international obligations," read a statement by the French foreign ministry quoted by the Turkish Anadolu news agency. "The uninterrupted pursuit of the policy of colonization, confirmed by these new projects, only adds to the tensions on the ground and undermines the prospects for a just and lasting peace based on the two-state solution," it added. IMO, that place was a lot nicer when it was ruled by Italians |
