According to Eitan Barashi, an aide to Defense Minister Ehud Barak, the Binyamin Regional Council community of Migron, in Shomron, will be relocated to nearby Yishuv Adam within 2-3 years. Barashi made his statement in response to the High Court of Justice, calling on the court to reject a petition filed by the Peace Now organization and attorneys for Arab land owners, who are demanding the state oust the residents immediately.
As per the agreement with the government and Yosh officials, the community of over 40 families will be moved to another nearby community, a process that will take a few years to implement.
Despite the agreement by settlement officials, the residents, their representatives and officials in the Benjamin Regional Council have not endorsed the plan, hinting a struggle will ensue to prevent their eviction from the community, whose location was selected by the IDF due to its strategic relevance in the area.
