Israel to build first settlement in West Bank since 1990s
First settlement in West Bank
Jerusalem - Nasser Al-Assa'ad
Israeli government revealed it would build a new settlement in the occupied West Bank in order to housing settlers were expelled from a site built on privately-owned Palestinian land.
A statement issued by the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said he will implement his promise to the settlers of Amona, and he ordered to form a committee to determine a site where they can build their homes in.
According to B'Tselem, an Israeli organization concerned with Human Rights, the last time Israel built a new settlement in the West Bank was in 1999, but settler outposts built without official permission, such as Amona, were built much later.
Around 330 Jewish settlers live in Amona, the largest among dozens settler outposts in the West Bank. The Supreme Court ruled in November, after a long legal battle, that Amona settlers must leave their houses because it was built on land belonging to Palestinians.
