Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Monday, 14 Cheshvan visited the Intel facility in Kiryat Gat.

In his statement to the media Mr. Netanyahu said “The vision of the future comes true here in the present. You create a new future. With technology, we have a great strength in Israel as Israel is a global technological leader. The national revolution is to eliminate the peripheral called Kiryat Gat, Beersheva, Afula and Yokneam. We are connecting them. There is no south, no north. We are canceling the periphery”.
