RAMALLAH, August 2, 2012 (WAFA) – The three Arabic Palestinian dailies Thursday highlighted Israeli government’s plan to build hotels in the settlements located near Jerusalem and offer financial grants to execute the project by 2013.

The dailies quoted President Mahmoud Abbas saying: “We are being subjected to pressure, thirst and blockade and our motto is ‘we are here to stay’”.
They printed photos of Abbas during his tour in the city of Hebron, after which he broke his fast with the people in Hebron Municipality.
Al-Quds reported on Abbas recommending security forces leaders in the Palestinian Territory to maintain the citizen’s dignity and security.
