Dramatic statements by Minister Smotrich regarding Judea and Samaria
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich presented a firm position today (May 19, 2026) regarding government policy in Judea and Samaria. In reports conveyed by the Telegram channels Son Dakika Haberler Gündem and Son Dakika Haberler Türkiye, the minister was quoted as declaring that Israel "has carried out a revolution" in the management of the territory in Judea and Samaria.
In addition, Minister Smotrich harshly attacked the Palestinian Authority and claimed that it "has launched a war and that it will receive a war in response". In this framework, the minister confirmed that he officially signed an order mandating the evacuation of the Bedouin village of Khan al-Ahmar.
