Liberman to bring plans for new Hebron homes for government approval

Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman says he’ll present plans for 31 new housing units in the West Bank city of Hebron for government approval on Sunday.

Liberman says in addition to the homes, the plans also include the building of preschools and public spaces in the flashpoint city. The proposed projects have already advanced through various planning stages.

“We’ll continue to strengthen settlement in Judah and Samaria with actions, not talk,” Liberman writes on his Twitter account, using the biblical names for the West Bank.

If the government green-lights the homes, it’d be the first time in over 15 years Israel has approved new construction in the city.
