Haaretz: 600 New Homes Approved For Occupied West Bank
The Defense Ministry has approved 600 new housing units in Ma'aleh Adumim, the largest West Bank settlement, ministry spokesman Eli Kamir said Monday.
Political sources said the plan could breach an understanding with the United States not to build more homes beyond the existing construction line in West Bank settlements.
The sources said clearance for the housing at Ma'aleh Adumim, a few kilometers east of Jerusalem, was given two months ago by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz.
