The heads of the Knesset's Land of Israel lobby, MKs Yoav Kish (Likud) and Bezalel Smotrich (Jewish Home) have called on the government not to remove the IDF from cities in Judea and Samaria.
Their concern came after reports suggested that secret talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority will lead to the IDF withdrawing from areas including Jericho and other cities.
"We don't give prizes to terror and the days in which we abandoned Israeli civilians' security to the Palestinian Authority ended long ago," the pair said. "Instead of reducing our hold on the land we must establish a sort of iron wall against our enemies."
