Netanyahu orders removal of unauthorized West Bank settler outposts

2026-09-06 13:50 UTC – 2026-09-07 13:02 UTC

Neutral summary

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the dismantling of unauthorized settler outposts in the West Bank, two people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Sunday. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich confirmed the order to evacuate some settlements, saying he did not support the move. The decision comes amid U.S. pressure to curb settler attacks on Palestinians, a day after American Ambassador Mike Huckabee visited the West Bank and called the assaults “acts of terror.” Israeli media reported that around a hundred outposts could be affected, though the timing of the operation remains unclear.
