The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) has started to build 164 housing units in the illegal settlement of Neve Daniel south of Bethlehem.
According to the Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission the new housing units will be built on dozens of dunums of Palestinian land which were annexed from the towns of al-Khader and Nahalin.
The Commission accused the IOA of making use of the global coronavirus crisis to illegally seize more land and expand its illegal settlements and outposts in the West Bank and Jerusalem.
