| Description | Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon has authorised the construction of 1,000 settler homes in the West Bank.
A cabinet official told AFP news agency the bids would be published after site inspections by the housing minister.
The Middle East peace plan known as the roadmap specifies a complete freeze on settlement activity, but Israel insists the plan has backing from the US.
The US avoided publicly criticising the announcement, saying it needed to study the plans closely before commenting. |
