The Minister of the Occupation Army, Yoav Galant, announced today, Wednesday, with the head of the Regional Council for the Northern West Bank Settlements, Yossi Dagan, that he had ordered the implementation of the language of the law to cancel the disengagement in the “Sanur,” “Ghneim,” and “Kadim” settlements established in the northern West Bank, in continuation of For the initial order to disengage from the “Homesh” settlement.


Gallant said, "Jewish control over Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) is what guarantees security for Israel, and implementing the separation law will lead to developing settlement and providing security for the residents of the region."


Gallant's decision opens the door for settlers to return to the three settlements mentioned in the statement and remain there, and that this is not in violation of Israeli law.
