Minister for Immigration Absorption and Jerusalem Ze'ev Elkin (Likud) has called on Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon (Likud) to stop the evacuation of the new residence in Hevron.

"The homes in Hevron were legally bought by them," said Elkin. "This is the time to fight terror and to support strengthening communities, and not to fight communities. Whoever speaks in the name of law and order is first invited to deal with people in the Palestinian Authority and left-wing activists to execute Palestinians that dare to sell their lands or homes to Jews."
