The Civil Administration approved a construction permit for a new 120-bed dormitory at the Shavei Hevron yeshiva in Hebron, ending an 18-year process. The project was advanced in recent years by changes led by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich at the Civil Administration, according to sources involved.
The Civil Administration, the Israeli military body overseeing planning and construction in Judea and Samaria, approved a building permit for a new dormitory at the Shavei Hevron yeshiva, adjacent to the Beit Romano compound in Hebron. The project will add 120 beds to help relieve overcrowding at the institution, which currently enrolls over 450 students.
The approval caps an 18-year permitting process, which sources said gained momentum in recent years following organizational changes spearheaded by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who holds authority over the Civil Administration. No further details on the timeline for construction were provided in the report.
