The Palestinian Anti-Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission reported Sunday that Israeli settlement projects in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, have reached 153 plans since the start of 2026. The commission did not specify details about the scope or timeline of these projects.
The announcement reflects continued Israeli settlement expansion in Palestinian territories, an issue that has remained contentious throughout decades of Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
