Israel to continue settlement activity in East Jerusalem

Azerbaijan, Baku, Nov.7 / Trend R.Hafizoglu /

Israeli authorities plan to build 1,285 homes for Jews in East Jerusalem and the West Bank of the Jordan River, "Al Jazeera" TV channel reported on Wednesday.

Namely continuation of settlement activity in the Palestinian lands by Tel Aviv was a reason for failure of the Palestinian-Israeli peace negotiations two years ago. The Palestinians refuse to resume them until Israel stops building housing in the occupied territories of the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Israel, in turn, offers to resume the dialogue without preconditions.
