Ramallah - Saba:
The Anti-Wall and Settlement Resistance Authority revealed that the Zionist enemy authorities have approved three major plans related to the "Ma'ale Adumim" settlement, built on stolen Palestinian lands east of occupied Quds.
According to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA), the head of the Authority, Minister Moayad Shaaban, stated on Sunday that the recently approved plans aim to create geographical continuity between the settlement and the "Mishor Adumim" industrial zone, further isolating the areas between the two colonial sites.
Shaaban added that these plans were submitted for approval in late 2024 and have now been approved as part of a clear race against time to impose facts on the ground, particularly around Quds. This intensifies the isolation and siege of the city through numerous settlement measures targeting it.
Upon reviewing the maps and documents attached to these plans, Shaaban explained that the three plans—marked in red on the attached map—work together to create geographical continuity between the "Ma'ale Adumim" settlement and the "Mishor Adumim" industrial zone, located east of the settlement and marked in yellow on the map.
The three plans are as follows:
1. Structural Plan No. יוש/1/59/7/1/420 for the "Ma'ale Adumim" settlement, aiming to build 1,113 new settlement units on approximately 1,307 dunams of Palestinian land.
2. Plan No. יוש/2/59/7/1/420, intended for the construction of 944 settlement units on around 680 dunams, connecting with the first plan.
3. A third plan designed to build 1,108 new settlement units on about 486 dunams, linking with the previous two plans to establish geographical continuity between "Ma'ale Adumim" and "Mishor Adumim," both built on stolen lands between Quds, Jericho, and the Jordan Valley.
Shaaban noted that these plans include the construction of a new settlement neighborhood and a road network that tightens control over the main street, completely isolating the communities of Bir Maskoub, Sinjil, and others from areas west of the settlement, as shown on the map.
He added that in 2024, the enemy submitted 21 structural plans for settlements outside Quds’s municipal boundaries, while in the first half of 2025 alone, it presented 28 structural plans for the same geographical area—an unprecedented and intensified targeting of the region.
