The Israeli authorities approved the construction of a bridge to connect two illegal Israeli settlements in Bethlehem in the southern occupied West Bank.
Coordinator of the National Committee against the Wall and Settlements in Bethlehem Hassan Brijiyeh said that the Israeli occupation authorities decided to build a 355-meters long suspended bridge that would connect the illegal settlement of Beitar Illit A with the settlement of Beitar Illit B.
The bridge would culminate in the confiscation of Palestinian lands in the village of Husan to the west of Bethlehem.
