First time in decades: construction approved for Hebron yeshiva after Smotrich announcement
Construction in Hebron was approved for the first time in decades without needing approval from the municipality, one day after Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich declared the “cancellation of the Hebron Accords,” ynet reported.
The Higher Planning Council approved 576 new housing units in the West Bank as part of the same decision. Among the approvals was a building permit for a 1,000-square-meter structure for the Shavei Hebron yeshiva, located near Beit Romano.
The move marks a significant change in construction policy in Hebron, where such building had not been approved for decades. The article did not say when construction would begin, only that the planning body had now given the green light.
