Bethlehem/PNN/
The National Bureau for defending land and resisting settlements (nbprs ) stated in its latest weekly report , that on the eve of the Knesset elections scheduled to take place next month, the Local Planning Committee of the Ma’ale Adumim Settlement Council holds a discussion on the 14th of this month about the ‘E1’ settlement project, east of the occupied Jerusalem. It is clear that the settlement plans in that area includes the construction of 3,401 settlement units on an area of about 2,100 dunums, which extends from Jerusalem along 11 kilometers towards the Green Line, which, if implemented, would divide the West Bank into two halves, north and south, and deal a fatal blow to the prospects for the establishment of a viable Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital on the one hand, and the displacement and expulsion of about 3000 Palestinians living in the Bedouin communities in the area, including Khan al-Ahmar.
