The Ministry denounced, in a press statement, the occupation authorities plan to legalize five colonial outposts, and its approval of a plan to build more than 5,000 additional settlement units in the West Bank. The statement indicated that the occupation authorities approved a plan to build more than 20,000 new settlement units in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem since 2023, and seized more than 2,300 hectares of land.
