British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband warned companies and individuals on Monday against bidding on tenders for Israel's E1 settlement project, citing potential sanctions and legal repercussions. The deadline for bids on the 1,234-home project, located between Jerusalem and Ma'aleh Adumim, was Monday. Opponents fear the settlement's expansion could hinder peace talks with the Palestinians. The Jerusalem District Court allowed the tender to proceed last month, pending a review of the construction plans.
