HERE’S THE NEGATIVE ANNOUNCEMENT:
Last hurdle cleared to start controversial E1 settlement project near Jerusalem. Government issues tender for 3,401 housing units in area east of capital, which both critics and proponents say will effectively block a contiguous Palestinian state in the West Bank [this is the nasty news all over the place by our enemies]
AND NOW MY ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Smotrich approves hundreds of housing units in multiple West Bank settlements. The units will be spread out between Hashmonaim, just over the Green Line in central Israel, and Givat Zeev and Beitar Illit near Jerusalem.

Israel has given final approval for 764 housing units to be built in three settlements in Judea and Samaria, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich (Religious Zionist Party) said Wednesday. The move is part of an ongoing initiative to expand housing in the area, he said. Hashmonaim in the Binyamin region of Samaria, near the center of the country, will receive 478 housing units. The haredi (ultra-Orthodox) settlement of Betar Illit in the Gush Etzion settlement bloc, south of Jerusalem, will receive 230 housing units.
