(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) are planning the confiscation of more Jerusalemite land to build a new road serving Jewish settlers.
The local committee for construction and planning announced on Tuesday that a meeting would be held on Wednesday to discuss the expropriation of land in Beit Hanina suburb, north of occupied Jerusalem.
The committee said that the land would be used to construct a new road to serve settlers in Ramat Shlomo settlement, which is planning to build 1500 new housing units.
The Israeli-controlled municipality of Jerusalem has already started building a section of that road called 21 with the help of Moriah Jerusalem Development Company in Shufat suburb, which is adjacent to Beit Hanina suburb.
