(VOVworld) - Only 381 of 1,800 planned homes in West Bank settlements will be constructed by Israel's Civil Administration, reported the daily newspaper Ha’aretz on Thursday. The news came amid increasing criticism from western diplomats. Both the Prime Minister’s Office and the Israeli Foreign Ministry refused to comment. Earlier, 5 European ambassadors including those of the UK, France and Germany warned Israel about its new settlement construction plan.
