The United Nations coordinator for Middle East peace said Israel's Housing Ministry has issued tenders for construction of approximately 2,240 settlement units in the West Bank, Shehab Wire reported. The announcement comes amid ongoing demolitions and confiscations of Palestinian structures and displacement operations.
The documented demolitions and displacements reflect the broader pattern of settlement expansion that the UN says continues across the occupied territory. Israeli authorities have not commented on the UN's figures or the settlement construction plans.
