Tourism Minister orders office to pursue punitive measures against Airbnb

Tourism Minister Yariv Levin calls on Airbnb to walk back its “discriminatory” decision to remove its listings in Israeli settlements.

Levin stresses that this was a disgraceful and miserable decision, and a disgraceful surrender to society.

According to a statement from his office, Levin has ordered his office to “formulate immediate measures to limit the company’s activity throughout the country.”

He also instructed his ministry “to implement a special program to encourage tourism and accommodation in vacation apartments throughout Judea and Samaria.”
