The statement read by issuing permits to build 792 residential units in East al-Quds, the Zionist regime is breaching the international law.
It referred to constructing housing units in Ramat Shlomo and Ramot, saying the measure which causes irreparable damage to the (so-called) peace process is rejected.
Along the same lines, the Zionist Supreme Court issued a decree in May to demolish Palestinian homes, following which a school housing 170 students was destroyed by the Zionist troops.
Israel occupied the West Bank and East al-Quds during a six-day war back in 1967. Since then, thousands of Israelis live in settlements built illegally in Palestinian lands.
Emboldened by the unflinching support of U.S. President Donald Trump, Tel Aviv has been stepping up its settlement construction activities, defying the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) Resolution 2334.
