ראש מועצת בנימין: הפיכת גבעת זאב לעיר - צעד מתבקש

Évaluation

Israel Gantz, head of the Binyamin Regional Council, welcomed the approval of Givat Ze'ev's transition from a local council to a city. The settlement now becomes the fifth city in Judea and Samaria, a status change Gantz describes as a natural step given its growth to over 35,000 residents. The announcement signals ongoing efforts to strengthen settlement infrastructure through formal municipal upgrades rather than merely declarative support. This bureaucratic transformation may carry implications for future planning, budgeting, and political leverage within the broader settlement enterprise.
