Today, Wednesday and tomorrow, Thursday, the Israeli occupation authorities intend to approve the construction of 5,300 colonial units in the occupied West Bank, despite mounting international criticism.
The United Nations confirms that colonization in the occupied territories is illegal, and has been calling for decades to stop it, and warns that it undermines the chances of resolving the conflict according to the principle of a two-state solution (Palestinian and Israeli).
Israeli media said, on Wednesday, that "the Israeli Supreme Planning Council (governmental) will meet today and tomorrow to approve the construction of 5,300 colonial units throughout the West Bank."
It quoted Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich as saying: “We develop colonialism and thwart the threat of establishing a Palestinian state.”
Two days ago, Smotrich vowed to build a new colony for every new international recognition of the State of Palestine.
