Housing Ministry issues tenders for 1,162 more settlement homes
A day after the Israeli government advances plans for some 2,000 settlement homes in the West Bank, the Housing Ministry publishes tenders for an additional 1,162 homes over the Green Line.
The tenders are for 409 homes in the city of Ariel, 459 homes in the city of Ma’ale Adumim, 250 homes in Elkana and 44 in Ma’ale Efraim.
The publishing of marketing tenders by the Housing Ministry is a bureaucratic step that projects in larger settlements are required to go through even after receiving “final validation” approval for construction by the Defense Ministry.
