Amman, Ramadan 08, 1439, May 24, 2018, SPA -- Jordan condemned the Israeli authorities announcement that they are planning to build new 2500 settlements on the occupied Palestinian territories. In a press release, the Jordanian government spokesman Mohammed Al-Momana confirmed today that the Israeli settlement activities are illegal and absolutely rejected as they pose direct threat to the option of peace and a flagrant challenge to the will of the international community and UN pertinent resolutions. He affirmed that the unilateral Israeli measures taken to change the situation on the ground, anticipate the outcome for the final situation negotiations, topped by the settlement activities, represent a systematic undermining for peace potentials and a threat to security and stability in the region. --SPA 22:58 LOCAL TIME 19:58 GMT 0034 www.spa.gov.sa/w693647
