[quote]Israeli media reported that the announcement would involve the construction of 1,400 houses in total.

According to Ma'ariv, Israeli government sources said that the plan would involve between 6-700 housing units in the East Jerusalem settlement of Ramat Shlomi, while the rest would be built in West Bank settlements.

The comments come days after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to push ahead with settlement construction despite calls for restraint by US Secretary of State John Kerry and the European Union.[/quote]
