Science Minister Ofir Akunis toured Samaria on Tuesday, together with Samaria Council head, Yossi Dagan.

During the tour, Dagan showed Akunis the illegal Palestinian Arab construction near Israeli communities. Akunis made it clear that “A Palestinian state will not be established here. A nation does not give up its homeland; nor does a nation give up its security. If we will not be here, Hamas and Jihadist terrorists will settle here.”
