The Hamas Movement has deplored the new Israeli plan to build 2000 housing units for Jewish settlers near Beit Safafa town in Occupied Jerusalem.
“The settlement expansion in Jerusalem is a crime that reflects the American support for the occupation’s projects and exposes the false claims of peace” Hamas said in a statement on Monday.
The Movement also said that Israel’s persistence in expanding settlements reflects “the dangerous nature of the Zionist project that is based on Judaizing the Palestinian land and displacing its people.”
It described the plan as “another desperate and failed attempt to impose a demographic fait accompli and target the Palestinian people’s rights identity and their presence on their own land.
“The timing of this settlement project after US president Biden’s visit to the Zionist entity reveals once again the size of support and official cover being provided by the US administration for the enemy government in its aggression against our land people and holy sites” Hamas underlined.
