National Unity MK Ze'ev Elkin commented on the draft of the state's answer to the Supreme Court regarding Khan Al-Ahmar: "Our 'fully right-wing' government came to an interesting insight: a fight over area C harms the political process with the Palestinians. Khan al-Ahmar must wait."
Elkin also said: "Who would have believed that the government in which Smotrich is responsible for what is happening in Judea and Samaria would reach this point? Has the Muslim Brotherhood infiltrated this government as well?!".
