Jewish families moved into eight homes in the Jericho area on Wednesday, in a complex operation that was kept entirely secret. The move was initiated and led by the 'Nachala' movement, in cooperation with the Benjamin Regional Council. Reports indicate the buildings were purchased outright through discreet real estate transactions conducted over a period of time. Preparations for settlement and the gathering of suitable families took place over many months in complete secrecy, near the archaeological site of the Hasmonean Palaces.
Israel Gantz, head of the Benjamin Regional Council and chairman of the Yesha Council, welcomed the move, calling it an important step to strengthen the settlement presence and continuity in the Jordan Valley region. Security forces are closely monitoring security procedures and public preparedness at the site.
