The head of the Samaria Regional Council, Yossi Dagan, called for the funeral of Yehuda Dimentman to immediately make better arrangements for the yeshiva in Homesh.
"Together with the family, I call on the government of Israel to give an appropriate response to the murder here. The Israeli government should make better arrangements for the Homesh Yeshiva- giving a Zionistic and proud response to this terrible crime. We will never be broken. "
