The Israeli occupation planning authorities issued building permits for 181 new homes in the occupied Al Quds Wednesday, the ABC News reported.
The occupied city’s Spokeswoman Brachie Sprung said plans in the Gilo area were first approved in 2012 and that Wednesday's approvals were for "technical details of plot distribution."
She said more detailed building permits will be required before the units are built. But the approval nonetheless raised hackles in the US State Department.
Israel captured the holy city of Al Quds and the West Bank in 1967.
