he Sovereignty Movement praises Defense Minister Benny Gantz for his resolute decision to make the Cave of the Patriarchs accessible to the disabled.

The Sovereignty Movement praises Defense Minister Benny Gantz for his resolute and timely decision to make the Cave of the Patriarchs accessible to the disabled. “This step combines a basic humanitarian need with a demonstration of sovereignty and strengthens the connection to the heritage of the forefathers and mothers buried at the Cave”, says the movement.

The co-chairwomen of the Movement, Yehudit Katsover and Nadia Matar, continue by expressing the hope for additional steps in this same spirit on the part of Minister Gantz. “The Defense Minister has the power to strengthen the Israeli People’s sovereignty over its Land and to build mutual trust and responsibility between the various sectors of the People.

For years, the PA and the Wakf have opposed this necessary step of making the Cave accessible to the disabled, for Jews and Arabs alike, from the understanding that the one who acts is the sovereign.

Benny Gantz’s directive to act immediately to make this holy site accessible is a significant act of Israeli sovereignty in the historic, beating heart of the Jewish People”.
