The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reported that the Israeli government is planning to construct a new settlement and synagogue close to the area of al-Aqsa Mosque, according to the al-Aqsa Foundation for Endowment and Heritage.
The plan would authorize 21 housing units, as well as a synagogue, to be built close to Al-Sahera Gate, inside the Old City of Jerusalem.
