Sunday 2-August-2020

The Israeli municipality in Occupied Jerusalem on Saturday approved a plan to build an additional commercial complex on about 90 dunums of land in the east of Issawiya district.

In press remarks chief of the municipality pledged to continue carrying out settlement and Judaization projects in the holy city.

The Israeli occupation authority had already announced its plan to carry out a huge settlement project in the east Jerusalem neighborhood of Wadi al-Joz called Silicon Wadi (Silicon Valley) which will include high-tech industrial employment centers and tens of thousands of shopping centers and hotels.

The only Palestinian industrial area in east Jerusalem is to be demolished in order to make way for this Silicon Wadi project.
