Netanyahu delays evacuation of illegal Bedouin settlement

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has postponed indefinitely the evacuation of Khan al-Ahmar, which Palestinian Bedouin set up illegally on the road between Jerusalem and Maaleh Adummim, although the Supreme Court confirmed the legitimacy of the state’s case for its demolition. It is being held up for negotiations on another solution, in response to requests from European leaders. Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman is categorically against postponement.
