[87194] After 18 years: Construction permit approved for a new dormitory at Yeshivat Shavei Hevron


After a lengthy 18-year process, a construction permit was approved for the establishment of a new dormitory at Yeshivat Shavei Hevron, which will include 120 beds and alleviate crowding at the institution.

Planning breakthrough in Hebron: New dormitory approved for 'Shavei Hevron' Yeshiva

After a prolonged bureaucratic process that lasted about 18 years, official approval was received for the construction of a new dormitory for the 'Shavei Hevron' Yeshiva, located near Beit Romano in the city. According to reports on Kol HaHadashot on 🆃🅴legram as well as Moment News - Army and Security on Telegram, the new dormitory is expected to include 120 beds.

The construction of the new building is intended to address the "crowding distress in the Yeshiva," where over 450 students currently study. The Yeshiva, which is affiliated with the Religious Zionist movement, is considered a central institution in the settlement landscape of Hebron.

According to Kol HaHadashot on 🆃🅴legram, the lengthy licensing process was accelerated and promoted in recent years as part of the "changes led by Minister Bezalel Smotrich in the Civil Administration." These Telegram channels are generally identified with pro-settlement positions and support for Minister Smotrich's policy, presenting the move as a significant achievement for the Torah institution.
