The committee in a press release on Tuesday said that the scheme aimed at linking between the two settlements of Kidar and Ma'aleh Adumim, the biggest in occupied Jerusalem.

The committee also condemned the IOA demolition of the six-story building in Beit Hanina owned by Majed Abu Aisha at the pretext of lack of construction permit.

It noted that an advisor to Israeli premier Ehud Olmert had recently quoted him as telling PA chief Mahmoud Abbas that Israel would continue to build settlement blocs in occupied Jerusalem and the West Bank.

The committee appealed to the Arab and Islamic masses to immediately act to confront the Zionist "criminal" practices, warning that the IOA was daily plotting to flatten all Arab homes in the holy city.
