Yariv Oppenheimer, head of the leftist Peace Now organization, on Sunday denounced reports that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu plans to end the construction freeze in Judea and Samaria and approve thousands of new homes.

“The political deal between Netanyahu and the settlers shows that the ones who control the government are [Ze’ev Hever], [Uri] Ariel, [Ayelet] Shaked and Bennett. Lapid and Livni are nothing but decorations,” he said.
