Israeli occupation approved the construction of five new settlements in the occupied region of Al-Naqab desert.
Proposed by the Israeli Minister of Interior Ayelet Shaked, the resolution gives the World Zionist Organisation’s Settlement Division the power to recruit residents to move to the new settlements.
Zeev Elkin, the housing minister, has recently announced that the Jewish National Fund (JNF) will resume a controversial forestation plan in the Negev in close proximity to Palestinian towns.
In December and January, hundreds of Palestinians protested against the JNF forestation plan, which they say is a pretext to push them out from their lands to make way for new Jewish towns. The plan was temporarily put on hold.
