Description
Israels E1 Settlement Project: A New Chapter in the West Bank ConflictIsrael has cleared a major hurdle for the controversial E1 settlement project, inviting developers to build 3,400 housing units in the East Jerusalem area. This plan, initially frozen due to US pressure, is now gaining momentum under the far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich. The international community views these settlements as illegal, and critics warn that E1 could make a connected Palestinian state nearly impossible. The tender process, open for bids on Israels Land Authority website, marks another tense chapter in the long-running West Bank conflict.
