Occupation speeds up Jerusalem settlement plans
The article discusses Israel's accelerated efforts to implement three extensive settlement projects in occupied Jerusalem before the Knesset elections, involving the construction of more than 3,400 new housing units. The regional committee submitted plans for settlement developments in the neighborhoods of Umm Tooba, Umm Lison, and the expansion of the Gilo settlement, with the aim of further fragmenting Palestinian neighborhoods and solidifying Israeli control over the city. This strategic move makes future political reconciliation more difficult. Analyses indicate that this approach reflects a strategy to redraw the geographical and political landscape of Jerusalem, exacerbating the divide with the West Bank and complicating prospects for peace. The government appears to be pushing large-scale projects before the elections to impose a settlement reality that will be difficult to reverse.
