The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in a statement that the Israeli plan is "part of Israel's colonial and expansionist projects" that are implemented by the Israeli government encouraged by the latest move by US President Donald Trump to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, Xinhua reported.
The ministry held Trump "fully responsible" for any new measures taken by Israel against the Palestinian people, their land and holy sites.
The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) on Sunday also warned of possible repercussions of Israel's "Greater Jerusalem" plan that seeks to connect more settlements geographically and cut off West Bank's contiguity.
Meanwhile, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah party said on Sunday that Fatah's Central Council will consider "a comprehensive review of the Palestinian-Israeli peace process" at an upcoming meeting.
Azzam Al-Ahmad, a member of Fatah's executive committee, told the Voice of Palestine that the Palestinian leadership is going to review its ties with Israel, due to the latter's failure to uphold its obligations under international law.
