Wall Authority Issues Tender for 627 Colonial Units in Ramallah Area
The settlements in Palestine are expanding significantly, as the Israeli occupation authorities have announced a bid to build 627 new settlement units in the "Kohav Ye’arop" settlement on land belonging to Ramallah and Al-Bireh. This is part of an intensive housing project. The announcement confirms that the bid was published on August 6, 2026, with the deadline for final offers set for November 30, 2026, following the approval of the plan in April 2025. The project aims to expand the settlements and strengthen their demographic and urban presence, covering an area of approximately 254 dunams. This reflects ongoing settlement expansion that continues to isolate Jerusalem from its Palestinian surroundings and increases pressure on Palestinian lands. Additionally, the Committee against the Wall and Settlements revealed that 12 settlement tenders were issued during the first half of 2026, covering more than 1,138 residential, commercial, and industrial units distributed across several main settlements. The committee pointed out that Israel is focusing on expanding the economic and service infrastructure of the settlements alongside residential expansion.
