The application of the order comes after a lengthy discussion that Defense Minister Gallant had with the head of the Samaria Regional Council Yossi Dagan and officials in the IDF.
Minister Gallant said that "after the law abolishing the disengagement in northern Samaria was passed in the Knesset and at the end of the administrative work, we were able to complete this historic move. The Jewish hold on Judea and Samaria guarantees security, the application of the law abolishing the disengagement in northern Samaria will lead to the development of the region and provide security to local residents."
"I want to thank my friend, the head of the Samaria Regional Council, Yossi Dagan, for pushing this issue and for his commitment to this issue. As I have done in all my positions in the Israeli governments – I will continue to develop Jewish residence in Judea and Samaria and strengthen the security of the citizens – on the roads and in towns," he added.
Dagan said that "this is a historic moment of historical correction, which is necessary for Israel in terms of first degree values and security, certainly after October 7. The State of Israel today corrected, in a stately and official manner, the injustice and folly of the expulsion from northern Samaria." READ MORE
