The Amona headquarters responded to the government decision to allocate budgets to establish the new community of Amichai in place of Amona and to place it in the jurisdiction of the Interior Ministry.
Amona leader Avichai Boaron stated that "after long weeks in which work to establish the new community did not move forward and after a rollercoaster week before the decision was taken, we cautiously welcome the decision which will lead to resumption of work.
Boaron added that "we congratulate the prime minister and his bureau on promoting the decision. The prime minister proved that he is committed to Amona members, but this commitment will be fulfilled when we enter the new town.
