(Haaretz).Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak have agreed on a plan to evacuate illegal outposts in the West Bank, mainly those located on Palestinian land, within weeks, Defense Ministry sources told Haaretz Wednesday.
The sources said Barak intends to dismantle a number of outposts out of 26 illegal ones. "It is up to him entirely, and on the time and circumstances he sees fit. Netanyahu won't make difficulties. They're in sync," a source said.
Ministers, including those from Likud, said Wednesdaythat Netanyahu probably promised United States President Barack Obama in their meeting that Israel would dismantle outposts soon.
