Government green-lights NIS 700 million for Gaza-area communities
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe government approves the earmarking of NIS 700 million ($187 million) in funds for a plan to “bolster the resilience” of Gaza-area communities.
The two-year plan was proposed during a meeting last month between Prime Minister Netanyahu and leaders from communities near the Gaza Strip following heavy criticism of the security cabinet for consenting to a ceasefire with the Hamas terror group.
“They resilience of the residents of the Gaza-area is an important component of national strength,” Netanyahu says at the weekly cabinet meeting.
He credits this resilience with allowing “members of the government and security cabinet to make decisions in the right way at the right time.”
