<div id="divLead">The British Foreign Office has condemned Israel&#8217;s plan to build 930 new housing units in the illegal settlement of Har Homa in the southern East al-Quds (Jerusalem).</div>
<p>“I condemn yesterday&#8217;s announcement by the Government of Israel to approve the construction of over 900 housing units which will expand significantly the illegal Settlement of Har Homa in East [al=Quds] Jerusalem,” British Foreign Office Minister for the Middle East Alistair Burt said in a statement on Friday.</p>
<p>“Unilateral actions such as this undermine international efforts to build lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians and make the two-state solution harder to achieve,” he further said.</p>
<p>In his statement, Burt referred to Israel as London&#8217;s friend saying “at a time when Israel&#8217;s friends are working to restart negotiations, this decision is deeply concerning”.</p>
<p>Tel Aviv occupied East al-Quds (Jerusalem) alongside the other Palestinian land of the West Bank in 1967 and later annexed both territories. The international community has refused to recognize either of the moves.</p>
<p>In November 2009, Israel put a 10-month halt on its settlement activities, but refused to renew the partial moratorium.</p>
