Rome, 5 Muharram 1438/6 October 2016 (MINA) – The Italian Foreign Ministry on Thursday said it is deeply concerned over Israel’s approval of illegal settlement bids in the occupied West Bank.
The Italian Foreign Ministry expressed its growing concern as regards Israel’s approval of new settlement plans in the occupied West Bank, The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reported.
It described the move as “a negative development” and another chain in the Israeli violations that hinder peace initiatives.
Earlier this week, the Israeli occupation government approved a bid to construct 300 illegal settlement units on occupied Palestinian lands between Ramallah and Nablus as a recompense to settlers residing in the Amona illegal outpost. (T/P008/R07)
