The National Union party is planning to hold its next caucus meeting in the Har Homa neighborhood, which the United States has placed in the same category as Judea and Samaria, where there is a freeze on new construction. Har Homa is located southeast of Gilo and has attracted thousands of new residents the past several years.
The party caucus will meet in Har Homa next Monday to show its support for the neighborhood. The government has issued conflicting reports on whether additional units are to be built soon, with one official saying permits have been approved and another saying that groundbreaking will be delayed.
