In a post on Twitter, MK Betzalel Smotrich responded to Prime Minister Netanyahu's claim he would apply sovereignty to the Jordan Valley after elections, writing:
"In every election campaign Netanyahu makes promises. Remember how many times he promised to build in E1 ?! Go and see... and Khan al Ahmar ... if he was serious about his promises he would convene a government meeting tonight and apply sovereignty over the Jordan Valley in a government decision. If there is no strong right to his side the promises will not be fulfilled! "
