Right-wing activists expressed anger Monday evening after Defense Minister Israel Katz decided to allow Palestinian workers to return to communities in Judea and Samaria starting Tuesday. The decision reverses restrictions imposed following a series of terrorist attacks, drawing sharp criticism from right-wing political figures.
Earlier Monday evening, The Zioneer reported that the IDF outlined a security protocol allowing Palestinian workers to return to communities in Judea and Samaria starting Tuesday, reversing a ban imposed after a series of Palestinian terrorist attacks. The announcement quickly drew fire from right-wing activists, who accused Katz of endangering Israeli communities and undermining the security gains achieved by the military. No official response from Katz or the Defense Ministry has been reported regarding the backlash.
