Israelis planning establishment of 19 synagogues in OJ

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM (Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - The Israeli-controlled municipality of occupied Jerusalem is planning to build 19 Jewish synagogues in Jabal Abu Ghuneim south of the holy city, Hebrew press reports said on Monday.

Ha'aretz quoted inhabitants in the suburb as saying that the decision would mean turning the suburb in the future into a purely Jewish haredim neighborhood.

It pointed out that 30,000 Jews were currently living in HarHoma (Abu Ghuneim), which was built in the early nineties of the past century, adding that thousands of other settlement units would be built in the few coming years.
