Israel approves E1 settlement to 'erase' Palestinian state with 'actions not slogans'

Israel approves E1 settlement to 'erase' Palestinian state with 'actions not slogans'

Israel has rubber stamped the construction of the E1 settlement project in the occupied West Bank, in a move that a minister described as “erasing” a Palestinian state “not with slogans but with actions”. 

The settlement subcommittee of the Civil Administration on Wednesday approved the building of 3,400 new housing units on occupied Palestinian territory.  

The majority of them will be built near an existing settlement in Maale Adumim, in an area that aims to connect settlements in the West Bank with occupied East Jerusalem. 

The plan also includes 342 units in a new settlement in Asael, in the south of the West Bank. 

Bezalel Smotrich, Israel’s finance minister, said: “Today we are placing historical facts on the ground. In E1 we are finally realising what has been promised for years. This is a defining moment for settlement, for security, and for the entire state of Israel.”
