Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant instructed the IDF to evacuate the new outposts created in the wake of the deadly shooting attack near Eli last month in which four civilians were murdered.
During government discussions on the illegal outposts in recent days, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich expressed his opposition to the evictions, Kan News reported.
The security establishment hopes that the outposts will be vacated independently - without the use of force, after a number of buildings were evacuated independently but were rebuilt during Operation Home and Garden in Jenin last week.
Last week, the Jerusalem District Court ruled that the order delaying the eviction of a new neighborhood erected near Ma'aleh Levina in Binyamin would remain in effect.
The residents of the neighborhood are expected to petition the Supreme Court at the beginning of next week claiming that the state practices discrimination because it does not enforce the law against illegal Arab construction, while it strictly enforces the law against Jewish construction.
The Binyamin Regional Council noted that the new neighborhood is within the boundaries of existing settlements and is in an advanced stage of obtaining approval, making it different from outposts erected outside of existing settlements.
Council chairman Israel Gantz is working feverishly to secure a full approval for the neighborhood to ensure it will allowed to remain standing, and has met with all the relevant parties in an attempt to resolve the issue.
