Jordan warns against Israel’s plan to approve 3,000 new settlement blocs in West Bank

Jordan warned against the Israeli authorities plan to approve the construction of 3,000 new settlement blocs in occupied Palestinian territories.

Spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Haitham Abu al-Fool rejected and condemned Israel’s advancing plan for the construction of more than 3,000 settlement homes, slamming such plan as a violation of international law and relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions.

He stressed that "the Israeli settlement policy in the occupied Palestinian territories, including settlement construction or expansion or confiscation of property or the displacement of Palestinians, is an illegal policy that undermines efforts to establish calm and the chances of a two-state solution that would bring about a comprehensive and just peace," according to Jordan’s official news agency, Petra.
