PM approves construction in East Jerusalem

None

An Israeli official says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has given final approval for the construction of more than 400 new homes in a Jewish neighborhood in East Jerusalem.

 

The official say the homes will be built in Ramat Shlomo, part of a project that upset the US when it was announced during a 2010 visit by Vice President Joe Biden.
