Bethlehem /PNN / 

In a  decision challenging global rejection the Israel government declared last night new settlement projects.

The Israeli Security Cabinet has authorized five outposts in the occupied West Bank and imposed further sanctions on the Palestinian Authority, hard-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich declared late last night.

The five settlement outposts are Evyatar, Givat Assaf, Sde Efraim, Heletz, and Adorayim. 

In addition, the so-called Higher Planning Council for Judea and Samaria is expected to meet to advance the approval of thousands of additional homes for Israeli colonists in the occupied West Bank, Israeli media reported.

Further restrictions were also declared regarding Palestinian construction in Area B of the West Bank, which is under the administration of the Palestinian Authority, in violation of signed agreements.

In a statement issued by the Minister of Finance in the occupation government, Bezalel Smotrich, he mentioned that these decisions come “in response to the Palestinian Authority's activities at the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice at the United Nations, arrest warrants against senior Israeli officials, and the pressure it exerts for unilateral recognition of the Palestinian state by various countries.”
