Yesha Council heads demanded Sunday that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu meet them regarding the “erosion heard lately in the government’s policy regarding freezing construction within Judea and Samaria.”

Danny Dayan, Yesha Council chairman, wrote to the Prime Minister about the talk about a “temporary freeze,” saying that from a practical point of view, the freeze would become absolute. “Not one construction plan has been approved in Samaria and Judea for months. The government under your leadership has departed with its stated intent to restore Jewish settlement to the path of development,” Dayan wrote, explaining that voters were assured that the Prime Minister would personally obligate promoting Jews to live within Judea and Samaria.
