The heads of municipal development companies in Judea and Samaria sent a letter to Defense Minister Yoav Gallant expressing grave concern about a threat to student transportation in Judea and Samaria. This is especially so following the recent car bomb discovered in the Binyamin Region that is believed to have been intended to be used against a school bus filled with children, which was scheduled to leave the town heading towards schools in the region.
The letter reads, “We are contacting you on behalf of the development companies in Judea and Samaria, which transport tens of thousands of students every day throughout the region. We want to express our great concern about the ever-growing threat to student transportation, in light of intentions to carry out attacks against vehicles transporting students. This situation is not only alarming, but constitutes a ticking bomb, which puts the lives of students, drivers and teachers in real danger.”
The signers of the letter demanded “immediate action to improve the security situation on the main transportation routes in Judea and Samaria” and not wait for another disaster that can be prevented.
