In addition, on the occasion of Ramadan, Defense Minister Ganz approved family visits to Israel for the first time for Palestinians living in Judea and Samaria, Sunday through Thursday.
It was also decided that another assessment of the situation will take place next week, headed by the Minister of Defense, at the end of which it will be decided whether to approve an extension of the steps for approving departure for family visits.
This depends on the security situation.

It should be noted that in the last two years no relief has been given in Ramadan due to the corona plague.
During the month, the operating hours in the aisles will be extended in order to provide the best solution for visitors.
General Rassan Aliyan updated senior Palestinian Authority officials and relevant figures in the international community on the steps and gestures for the holiday, and congratulated them on the holiday.
