Report: Israel mulling transfer of 10K dunams to PA in goodwill move
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Civil Administration, which acts as the IDF’s liason to the Palestinian population in the West Bank, is considering the possibility of transferring some 10,000 dunams (about 3.8 square miles) of land currently under Israeli control to the Palestinian Authority, Channel 2 reports.
The move would be intended as a goodwill gesture to the Palestinians in exchange for likewise gestures from Ramallah aimed at calming the violence that has rocked the region.
There is no official confirmation of the plan, which comes as US Secretary of State John Kerry is in the region to try and ease tensions.
The move would likely anger the right flank of Netanyahu’s government.
