The Prime Minister office attacked the UN Security Council's condemnation of Israel building new homes in Judea and Samaria.

"The UN Security Council issued a unilateral statement denying the rights of Jews to live in our historic homeland, ignoring Palestinian terrorist attacks in Jerusalem in which 10 Israeli citizens were murdered this month, turning a blind eye to the fact that the Palestinian Authority subsidizes terrorism and pays the families of terrorists, and dwarfing the anti-Semitism that has led to the murder of millions of Jews," it said.

"The statement should not have been made and the United States should not have joined it," it added.
