Eight Jewish families have settled in eight homes on the outskirts of Jericho in a covert operation organized by the Nahala movement, with the backing of the Binyamin Regional Council. The operation, kept secret until the last moment, saw the families move into the homes on Wednesday. Organizers stated that the houses were purchased outright and the transactions were conducted secretly, without the knowledge of the Palestinian Authority.
The homes are located on state land within the Binyamin Regional Council, some near the Hasmonean Palaces archaeological site. The movement emphasized that the purchases are backed by ownership documents. They view this as the first step towards renewing Jewish settlement in the Jericho area.
Israel Gantz, Head of the Binyamin Regional Council and Chairman of the Yesha Council, linked the event to the evacuation of Jericho under the Oslo Accords. "Today we are beginning to reverse the direction," Gantz declared. "We are dismantling the Oslo Accords with actions, house by house, family by family."
Daniella Weiss, Chairwoman of the Nahala movement, also welcomed the move, stating, "Today we are privileged to see the continued fulfillment of this vision and are opening a new chapter in the history of settlement in the city of Jericho."
