Jericho to be first West Bank town handed to Palestinians
An Israeli official said Jericho will be the first West Bank town turned over to Palestinian control as part of a separation policy. Israel aims by 2008 to remove most Palestinians from its workforce, a shift tied to security concerns and the ongoing conflict. The transfer, to occur within two days, follows prior plans for Tulkarem and comes amid accusations by settler leaders of state complicity in unauthorised outposts.
