PM okays construction of 300 West Bank units

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approves construction of 300 housing units in the Beit El settlement, during an emergency meeting with Likud ministers, Channel 2 reporter Amit Segal reports.

Netanyahu called the meeting with Likud MKs following an outbreak of violence in the West Bank settlement, Army Radio reports.

Earlier this week, Jewish Home MKs, notably Bezalel Smotrich, threatened to leave the government coalition over the High Court of Justice’s decision to demolish two buildings in the West Bank settlement.
