The Palestinian Authority on Wednesday slammed Israel’s approval of a key settlement project in the occupied West Bank, saying it undermined the chances of a two-state solution.

The approval of the project in the area known as E1 “fragments… geographic and demographic unity, entrenching the division of the occupied West Bank into isolated areas and cantons that are disconnected from one another, turning them into something akin to real prisons,” the PA’s foreign ministry said in a statement.
