According to Peace Now, the tenders provide for the construction of 2,112 housing units in the Judea and Samaria and 460 in east Jerusalem.
"Our out-of-touch government leadership continues to press on with its mad scramble to promote as much settlement activity as possible until the last minutes before the change of the administration in Washington," said Peace Now.
The report comes after Israel approved 780 new settler homes in Judea and Samaria on Sunday.
