Jerusalem:  The next phase of talks regarding Gaza ceasefire began on Thursday afternoon in Qatar's capital Doha. The eyes of countries around the world are fixed on this. Meanwhile, the Israel Civil Administration Department announced that the new settlement Nahal Heletz will be settled after 2017. It will be built on 148 acres near the Palestinian city Bethlehem.

Construction could take several years

The Israel Civil Administration, the country's governing body, said a proposal for construction had been prepared. However, construction could take several years as it would take time to obtain zoning plans and permits.

The decision to build a settlement on Palestinian land sparked controversy

At the same time, the organization Peace Now has opposed the construction of settlements. The organization has said that Nahal Heletz will be a settlement enclave in the Palestinian territory, which will pose a security threat. It has been designed to disrupt the territorial continuity of Palestine.

He said the settlement would be built on the land of the Palestinian village of Battir, which is on UNESCO’s World Heritage List as an ancient agricultural land.
