Israel urged to stop settlement expansion in East Jerusalem
Amnesty International has condemned Israel’s approval of 1,600 new settler homes in East Jerusalem, calling it a violation of international law and a severe threat to Palestinian human rights. The expansion of settlements like Ramat Shlomo worsens displacement, restricts Palestinian freedom of movement, and exploits Palestinian land and resources. Amnesty urges an immediate halt to settlement expansion as a step toward removing all illegal settlements from occupied Palestinian territories.
