Ya'alon: "Economy in Territories on Upswing"
(Jerusalem Post) Nina Gilbert - IDF Chief of Staff Ya'alon told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee he was recently "stuck in traffic" in Ramallah and saw stores with produce, open cafes, and much traffic, a situation that was not previously evident. He said there is "economic and humanitarian improvement" in Ramallah, Kalkilya, Tulkarm, and Hebron, which he attributed to the removal of barriers that limit movement.
