Netanyahu angers settlers by only advancing 1,400 homes
(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu angered settlers and right-wing politicians by only advancing plans for close to 1,400 new Jewish homes in West Bank settlements on Wednesday.
Rather than welcoming the new construction, the bulk of which was advanced by the Higher Planning Committee for Judea and Samaria on Wednesday morning, Netanyahu’s right-wing partners complained that it was far too little.
The Higher Planning Council on Wednesday advanced 1,010 new units, of which the largest project was 370 new homes for the Geva Binyamin settlement, also known as Adam. A July terror attack in that community that borders Jerusalem claimed the life of Yotam Ovadia, 31. The building project is part of a larger plan to eventually construct 1,093 new homes in that community. It’s a move that would likely double the size of the community of over 5,200 people. The settlement is located on the edge of both Jerusalem and Ramallah and is outside the route of the security barrier. [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
