Smotrich urges ending Israel-Palestinian pact and empowering Hebron Municipality
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announced that he had canceled a previous agreement with the Palestinian Authority that granted the Hebron Municipality in the West Bank the authority to manage the Ibrahimi Mosque. He confirmed that the powers previously held by the municipality now revert to Israel, thereby restoring control of the site to the Israeli state. This statement came as Smotrich was participating in laying the foundation stone for a new settlement near Hebron, following the Israeli High Planning Council's decision to transfer management authority of the mosque from the Hebron Municipality to Israel. This move has sparked Palestinian concerns regarding the legal and political status of the city.
