<p style="font-size:10pt;">NEW YORK, (PIC)&#8211; The UN Secretary  General, Ban Ki-moon, has expressed concern over the Israeli occupation  authority&#8217;s (IOA) announcement that 1,300 new housing units would be  built in occupied Jerusalem.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Ban&#8217;s spokesman said that the UN chief was  speaking during a meeting with Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu in  New York on Monday.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Ban also pointed to the importance of  resuming negotiations with the Palestinians and hoped the IOA would  facilitate the movement of inhabitants and goods in and out of the Gaza  Strip.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">For her part, the European Union&#8217;s high  representative for foreign affairs Catherine Ashton asked the IOA on  Tuesday to reverse its decision to build new housing units in occupied  Jerusalem.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In a similar context, the Israeli TV  channel 10 disclosed on Tuesday that 66 Jewish families have recently  moved into Ras Al-Amod suburb in eastern occupied Jerusalem.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">It noted that the secret and unpublicized  step coincided with the project of housing more Jewish settlers in the  suburb, who reached 250 families currently housed in seven areas in the  suburb.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The TV report noted that the settlement  activity in that suburb, which overlooks the holy Aqsa Mosque, has been  ongoing for the past three years and that tens of housing units were  built in the process.</p>
